Media Revolution: Redefining Growth Through Channel Diversification

Scott Kramer, VP of Growth at AS Beauty, and Edward Benedito, VP of Growth Marketing at Upside, join AppLovin’s Meagan Martino to discuss how and why brands and apps alike are expanding their media horizons and exploring new channels such as in-app advertising.
