We have seen widespread adherence to the Better Ads Standards by publishers and ad tech vendors in markets around the world. Examples include leading <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/programmatic-advertising\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">programmatic <\/a>companies pledging to only sell ads compliant with the Standards, publisher adherence to the Standards as measured by Coalition partners, cross-industry participation in industry certification programs that include the Standards, and other companies requiring adherence to the Standards are part of their business processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-can-you-update-us-on-the-coalition-s-research-into-video-advertising-formats\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Can_you_update_us_on_the_Coalitions_research_into_video_advertising_formats\"><\/span><strong>Can you update us on the Coalition\u2019s research into video advertising formats?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Coalition has been conducting research on consumer views of ad formats in short-form video (&lt;8 minutes). This research involved a similar methodology to that used to develop the Better Ads Standards for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/desktop-ad-revenue-vs-mobile-ad-revenue\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">desktop and mobile web<\/a> with additional input from international working group of industry participants. Our research, involving 25 desktop and 20 mobile web ad experiences and over 45,000 surveys in 8 countries, was completed in September. We are in the process of completing our recommendations and plan to announce new Standards in the near future. &nbsp;The Coalition announces Standards at least four months before they take effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-what-s-on-the-agenda-for-2020-for-the-coalition\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Whats_on_the_agenda_for_2020_for_the_Coalition\"><\/span><strong>What\u2019s on the agenda for 2020 for the Coalition?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Coalition will focus on rolling out short-form video Standards, completing a methodology and research plan for<a href=\"https:\/\/www.adpushup.com\/blog\/in-app-advertising\/\"> in-app advertising<\/a>, developing a seal program for industry participants, and consider an update to our desktop and mobile web Standards.&nbsp; We\u2019ll continue our engagement with trade associations and companies around the world, highlight successful case studies, and promote best practices that improve the online ad experience for consumers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"h-what-advice-would-you-give-to-publishers-going-into-2020\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_advice_would_you_give_to_publishers_going_into_2020\"><\/span><strong>What advice would you give to publishers going into 2020?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Put the consumer at the center of designing your entire digital experience including advertising.
