How Data, Identity, and Privacy Impact Advertising, with Comcast's Carmela Fournier
How are data, identity, and privacy shaping the future of advertising? In this episode of The Marketing Rapport, host Tim Finnigan sits down with Carmela Fournier, VP & GM of Data at Comcast Advertising, to break it down. From her early days at Nielsen to leading data innovation at Comcast, Carmela shares how measurement has evolved—and where it's headed next.
They discuss the growing importance of first-party data, the challenges of identity resolution, and how advertisers can build more precise, privacy-safe campaigns. Carmela explains how signal loss impacts ad effectiveness and why deterministic data is critical for accurate targeting and measurement. She also shares insights on Comcast’s signal authentication and how it helps brands improve reach and attribution.
Looking ahead, Carmela highlights key trends in media measurement, including the convergence of TV and digital, the role of clean rooms, and why advertisers must rethink identity to stay ahead.
