“These are exciting times for UKOM.

This is going to be a tremendous advance for our members.”

“With the UK on track to be the first market in the world to exceed 70% of total spend via digital media, UKOM's appointment of Ipsos is a positive step towards measurement of this tremendously complex area.”

Dominic Carter, Group Chief Commercial Officer, News UK
