Matthew Shay, Director of Media at Blue Bite, highlighted in a recent interview that B2B buyers now engage across channels, devices, and real-world moments before contacting sales, necessitating contextual, connected, and measurable omnichannel strategies for marketers. According to the interview, this evolution means campaigns must combine location-aware targeting, cross-device activation, AI-driven optimization, and outcome-based measurement to achieve stronger B2B media performance.

On April 27, tvScientific by Pinterest announced that advertisers can target Pinterest’s exclusive high-intent audiences on Connected TV through its platform, marking the first major milestone since Pinterest acquired tvScientific in February 2026. This launch allows advertisers to reach these audiences off Pinterest and on TV, as part of a broader vision for a unified cross-screen advertising experience.

B2B marketing leaders have optimized for search engines using keywords, backlinks, technical SEO, and steady content production for more than a decade, according to Demand Gen Report. That model is now being disrupted by AI-powered answer engines that summarize, interpret, and recommend suppliers before a buyer clicks a link.
