<h2>Tactics</h2>
<p>Genius Sports worked with Coca-Cola and its agency partners to design and automate data-driven creative in four sizes and formats. Using 28 pre, live and post-game triggers, such as live match scores and kick-off countdowns, each creative auto-updated with dynamic sports messaging to engage fans.</p>
<p>Meanwhile, thanks to an API integration with Meta, our live World Cup data feeds enabled Coca-Cola to trigger over 3,000 ads at precise moments, such as after a goal and at half-time. Each ad was served in the local language across territories.</p>
<p>Unlike many other brands competing for share of voice, Coca-Cola continuously won fan attention at key times thanks to its contextual and sports data-driven campaign approach.</p>
