dentsu Play partnered with WATConsult, a globally awarded hybrid digital agency from the house of dentsu international, on Tata Motors and has pioneered a unique solution to target premium, behind the pay wall OTT audiences on platforms outside of the OTT through industry first integrations using first-party and second-party data partnerships.
