ABG x IPSOS: MARKETING AS A GROWTH AGENT
Marketing has become a core growth engine across MENA, driven by data, AI, and advanced analytics. Insights from ABG and Ipsos show that performance is no longer separate from marketing—it defines it. While 41% of marketers feel their function is strong, the pace of technology transformation varies across the region, from the UAE as an accelerator to emerging next-generation hubs. Future-ready marketing teams are increasingly data-led, adaptive, and AI-literate, with many already using analytics daily and AI embedded—often unknowingly—into areas such as customer engagement, targeting, and predictive analysis.
ABG x IPSOS: AI TRANSFORMATIVE PULSE
AI Transformation Pulse: Insights from the Region
In partnership with Ipsos, ABG’s AI Transformation Pulse offers a snapshot of how advertising and media professionals in the UAE and Saudi Arabia are moving from AI experimentation to real business impact. The report highlights current AI fluency, adoption patterns, and core applications, while exploring attitudes toward efficiency, ethics, and governance. With only a fraction of professionals using AI consistently, the findings underscore the need for targeted upskilling, robust governance frameworks, and trust-driven adoption. This research provides actionable insights for organisations aiming to unlock AI’s full potential and transform occasional use into sustained competitive advantage.
