Eyetalk Media Ventures launches data-driven audience measurement tool
NEW DELHI: Content-driven integrated DOOH media company, Eyetalk Media Ventures has launched PEOPLE – a unified data management platform that gathers, organises and activates first, second- and third-party data.
While the OOH industry post the Covid2019 pandemic moves from selling location – media to selling audiences, PEOPLE is an agglomeration of different data sets which come together to address four simple, but most important questions about the audience – who, where, how many & when.
The data is collected from multiple sources like mobile, RFID, POS, IoT driven devices and integrated into the proprietary automated dashboard that provides granular insights at the hyper-local level, making media investment decisions easy.
Eyetalk Media Ventures group CMO Rahul Biswas said "In my various roles in top agencies and at the client side in the last decade, I have been working on many planning tools and data sets to harness the power of data for better ROI and to bring accountability to any media plan. That's exactly what PEOPLE does. With PEOPLE, you can do all four-market segmentation – Demographic, Psychographic, Behavioural and Geographic. People in Phase 1 will bring you location-based Audience Insights and help you do a pre-post campaign evaluation.”
Eyetalk Media Ventures managing director Gautam Bhirani said, "Fresh data and accurate insights have never been more important. Covid2019 not only has shifted business trends but also consumer priorities and the entire marketing landscape. Amid the economic crisis in these uncharted territories, with PEOPLE, we have tried to bring answers in the form of data to questions a marketer would have while investing in Out Of Home media.”
He added, “PEOPLE provides actionable audience insights daily, covering our network spread across 500+ unique locations. With this, the platform will help marketers Quantify – Classify audience and procure DOOH impressions at a price that complements footfalls. The platform also provides an opportunity to integrate our DOOH assets with mobile to amplify a digital campaign which will help measure brand lift and ROI.”
MUMBAI: In India’s fast-moving payments race, Visa has just swiped in a new leader. The company has named Suresh Sethi as its India country head, marking a key leadership shift as it sharpens its focus on digital payments growth in the market. Sethi steps into the role following his recent exit from Protean eGov Technologies, where he served as chief executive officer. He succeeds Sandeep Ghosh, who has moved on after more than four years at Visa to pursue an external opportunity.
The appointment comes at a time when Visa is doubling down on its expansion strategy across India and the wider region, deepening partnerships and accelerating adoption in an increasingly competitive digital payments ecosystem.
Sethi brings with him a broad, cross-market perspective shaped by decades of experience across corporate banking, retail financial services, mobile money and large-scale government technology initiatives. He began his career at Citigroup, where he spent 14 years working across India, Africa, South America and the United States, focusing on transaction banking services within the corporate bank.
His appointment signals a blend of institutional experience and market familiarity qualities that could prove critical as Visa navigates a landscape where fintech innovation, regulatory evolution and consumer adoption are all accelerating at once.
As digital payments in India continue to scale rapidly, the leadership change underscores a simple reality, in a market where every tap, scan and swipe counts, who leads the charge can matter just as much as the technology itself.
