For the second consecutive year, the IAB conducted the annual Digital Adspend Study across MENA aiming to build on the successful ad market sizing for 2020 that sized the MENA Digital Adspend at $3.6B.
This year’s survey focussed on increasing the level of detail by including more participants, sub-regional splits, year-over-year growth rates, social, video and programmatic breakouts and identifying spending via third parties vs direct.
