Never one to accept the status quo, Debbie Reichig has always been on the forefront of new technology and has helped various advertising media companies decipher the environment and invent appropriate strategies for success.  Currently, she directs research efforts at 20^th TV/Fox and is leading their implementation of big-data targeting and spear-heading their programmatic sales initiative.  Prior to this she guided product development and sales at big-data TV targeter Precision Demand and helped sell the company to AOL.  During the early days of digital-out-of-home at Clear Channel Outdoor, Reichig researched insights into how OOH, social, local and mobile work together to reach target customers. At NBC Universal, Reichig coordinated and organized their first "New Technology Conference", their first "Digital Place-Based Upfront" and the A.C.T.I.O.N. Media Research Council.  While at Court TV, Reichig developed the first ROI-based secondary effectiveness guarantee, and during the early days of online she conducted the research that led to iVillage.com being the first site to ban pop-ups, developed new ad formats, and turned research into a revenue generator as they fought for TV dollars.
