The drastically changing behaviour and habits of humans caused by their increasing reliance and engagement with their mobile tablets have played a huge role in motivating SPH Media to reinvent the Internet on mobile devices, and in the process, establishing various forms of interactive advertising.
In order to help organisations deliver branding, messages and content to target audiences, we have built our apps and mobile-responsive websites on such devices to offer visually rich advertising and media experiences through mobile applications or in-application advertising (colloquially known as app-vertising).
*According to the Digital, Social & Mobile in APAC in 2015 report by We Are Social and IAB Singapore, individual countrydata suggests that almost half of the APAC population uses a mobile phone and the current growth trends indicate that mobile phone penetration in the region will likely cross 50% within the third quarter of 2015.
