Welcome to the programme. Its the lifeblood of firms. If people dont know you exist, or what you do, youll struggle to make much money. But advertising also costs money. So how do firms make sure theyre spending it in the right place and attracting the right customers . Thats top of the agenda for the industrys big annual get together in london this morning. So how much is spent on advertising . Around the world, across all forms of media its thought to be at nearly half a trillion dollars a year. But where companies chose to spend their ad dollars is changing. About 38 went on traditional tv adverts last year with 36 on digital platforms. This year online ads are set to become the biggest slice of the advertising pie. But the platforms which host the ads like google and facebook are grappling with a big rise in advertising fraud. This comes in the form of bots and software that tricks websites into thinking more people have actually seen an ad which means advertisers are overcharged for it. And this problem is growing, and some of the leading players in the industry are now warning that 20 percent of all digital ad spending is in danger of being wasted on fraud. With me is our Technology Correspondent rory cellanjones. Rory, this is something youve talked to some of the top bosses about, its a big dealfor the Advertising Industry isnt it .

I understand you can get software that you can bolt on to your ads to reduce this somehow if you are a customer wanting to advertise on ,;. ,t fszj, brig{ail z ea, we took down 1. 7 billion ads that violated their policy last year more than double the previous year. What should begans do who wished to advertise online effectively and not wa nt to advertise online effectively and not want to pay out for ads not being looked at by real people . Its basically a technological war, a bit like the arms race going on over cyber security. They need the best tools available. They are uniting now the Advertising Industry in a you have not seen them do way you have not seen them do before, saying, i heard a threat recently from the big agencies to google and facebook, listen if you dont sort this because you dominate Online Advertising, we are going to Online Advertising, weategolngte a boycott. That seems unlikely have a boycott. That seems unlikely because why would you move away from the biggest platform, but theyre making that threat. Interesting. Thank you, rory.

You are with us now on business live news. More now on europes largest gathering of Advertising Industry leaders. The uks Advertising Market is worth around £200 billion. With targeted advertising coming underfire for adverts placed next to extremist material, what are the other challenges facing british advertisers . Edwina dunn is the Chief Executive of starcount and she was co founder of dunnhumby, the firm behind the tesco clubcard. A very good morning to you. Lets talk about what you do with the data because clearly you are an expert in all of this and know what consumers doing, how and where they shop, are doing, how and where they shop, and that is the joy of Digital Advertising and marketing, you have more information about customers than ever before . Yes, that is right. Actually, when we started work with tesco on clu bca rd we started work with Tesco On Clubcard 20 we started work with Tesco On Clubca rd 20 years we started work with Tesco On Clubcard 20 years ago, people said that targeted marketing would never be relevant because tesco is a mass market brand. And so no one really could conceive the Idea Of Sending N 334 3 3 messages could conceive the Idea Of Sending N 333 3 3 messages to could conceive the idea of sending messages to millions differentiated messages to millions of but it worked and it of consumers. But it worked and it propelled them from, you know, place in the market to almost third place in the market to Market Leader by a massive percentage. I feel where we are in the market right now is in a similar position. People are saying, you know, digital and being able to reach millions of people means i know, digital and being able to reach millions of people means that theres no role for selective or targeted advertising. People get everything. I think its the time that its going to g everything. I think its the time that its going to q now everything. I think its the time that its going to now and that its going to shift now and there are going to be some companies out there that are really clever in w out there that are really clever in 33 they out there that are really clever in they actually. Out there that are really clever in j they actually selectively out there that are really clever in j they actually selectively offer how they actually selectively offer up how they actually selectively offer up content and messages. And that, to some of us listening, and that teseme of us listening. Bea and that teseme of us listening. Be a worry because we are might be a worry because we are finding out that you are becoming much more clever at targeting us and using the data that you do receive abbot us using the data that you do receive abogt us and using the data that you do receive about us and i are using the data that you do receive abogt us and i are concerned using the data that you do receive about us and i are concerned about about us and we are concerned about where that is going and how its used . I think the fact is, consumers have gotte n used . I think the fact is, consumers have gotten used to free stuff. People, mainly getting some idea of what theyre interested in. That combination of wanting free stuff and knowing them, that puts huge demands on companies to actually be smarter with data. Flavoursome all of the technology has been rear view mirror, analysing people did. The future will what people did. The future will be. Sorry to interrupt.

Arcelik is europes Third Largest Home Appliances company. As the silk road is revived with the new train link between britain and east china, does that really open the door to new trade links . Hakan bulgurlu is chief welcome to business live. Now, you are a turkish company. You been around for many years and have been around for many years and youve been with the company for sometime yourself. And youre very established in many countries Around The World including china, but for your company, how big an opportunity did does this new link provide for you . I personally firmly believe that the Economic Growth engine of the world is shifting to the east together with the enlarging middle classes i think South East Asia and the Indian Subcontinent will take a larger share of global gdp. Arcelik were trying to position beko our brands. Turkey has a long standing tradition of trading on the silk road. Today with chinas investment in one belt, one road policy and the giant Infrastructure Projects that are going in both in South East Asia and the Indian Subcontinent i believe there will be lots of opportunities.
