Walmart Connect and Magnite Unite Retail Media with CTV
At Cannes 2026, AdExchanger interviewed Magnite and Walmart Connect about the growing convergence of retail media, CTV and programmatic advertising. The discussion highlighted how Walmart Connect’s scale (150 million customers, 4,600 stores) combined with Magnite’s premium programmatic inventory can create an omni-channel ecosystem that unifies brand storytelling and performance in CTV, with measurement extending to offline sales. Magnite emphasised a focus on durable growth rather than short-term solutions. The piece is presented as a filmed conversation available via AdExchanger’s Content Studio.
Major retailer (Walmart Connect) and a leading SSP (Magnite) discussing integration of retail first‑party scale with CTV programmatic and offline measurement is strategically relevant for advertisers and programmatic supply chains, but it does not announce platform policy or a market‑shifting product release.
