Cadent and Liberty Global’s partnership began in 2019 when Cadent deployed its platform in the UK on behalf of Virgin Media as part of the Sky AdSmart program, powering addressable advertising across both linear and on-demand in millions of homes.
Cadent’s platform allows advertisers to use the best of TV – the scale and engagement of live and on-demand television that builds brands – with the best of digital advertising, including sophisticated targeting and attribution capabilities. Through this unique innovation, Liberty Global can offer a truly scaled alternative to the digital and social media advertising.
In particular, Cadent’s solution enables advertisers to target households by using anonymized data in a GDPR-compliant manner. As third-party cookies are phased out and consumer privacy becomes even more of a priority to the industry, this approach provides advertisers the opportunity to reach strategic audiences in a trusted environment.

“In the increasingly complex digital advertising marketplace, advertisers require access to high quality data to target their audiences in brand-safe environments beyond the walled gardens,” said Sam Tomlinson, partner at PricewaterhouseCoopers and part of the team that produced the ISBA and PwC Programmatic Supply Chain Transparency Study, which proposed steps toward supply chain transparency and accountability.
“This integration delivers another big part of Liberty Global’s continued commitment to linear and on demand addressable advertising to support our content partners and provide a better viewing experience for our customers,” said Pieter Vervoort, VP Product, Entertainment, Liberty Global. “Cadent is providing a sophisticated solution that shows a clear way forward for TV platforms and broadcasters.”
