Castoola, a privately owned company headquartered in Slovenia, was founded in 2014 and employs approximately 20 individuals. The company reported $1.8M in revenue as of 2024. Specializing in TV and streaming ad tech, Castoola functions as an all-in-one platform for targeted TV advertising.
Castoola participated in IBC 2024, focusing on solutions for video monetization for telcos, broadcasters, and OTT platforms. The company aimed to combine CTV's reach with precise digital targeting. This participation follows a broader industry discussion regarding the future of advertising in the wake of Google's announcement to eliminate third-party cookies from its Chrome browser, a plan announced a few years ago. The impact of this change on advertisers who rely on cookies for user tracking and personalized ads remains a concern. Castoola's presence at IBC 2024 highlighted new developments in media technology and trends shaping the future of the media landscape.
