Effort to Reduce Carbon Footprint | Press Releases
PRESS RELEASE Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company Launches Effort to Reduce Carbon Footprint Enabled by Infosys Technologies World’s Largest Manufacturer of Chewing Gum Seeks to Transform Logistics Operations in Western Europe London, UK - November 20, 2008: In a move to extend its social responsibility leadership, the world’s leading manufacturer of chewing gum Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company is reducing the carbon footprint it creates in its logistics operations, Infosys Technologies announced today. Infosys is enabling Wrigley to transform its logistics operations by providing solutions and services in a pilot to determine how much carbon emissions are produced and subsequently may be reduced across the company’s truck-based shipping operations in Western Europe. “Managing our impact on the environment is an integral part of Wrigley corporate philosophy,” said Ian Robertson, head of supply chain sustainability at Wm. Wrigley Jr. Company. “We’re committed to making improvements across all operations but need an integrated enterprise system to measure progress. Infosys provided that solution and services to empower that process.” Early in the pilot, Infosys identified logistics operations in which Wrigley may reduce its carbon footprint by as much as 20 percent, and provided process consulting around operational adoption. The analysis will continue to evaluate Wrigley’s complex distribution network across six countries in Western Europe – spanning more than 44 million kilometers a year in shipments between suppliers, the company and its own customers and includes its distribution centers – for CO2 emissions emitted according to the UK’s Defra (Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs) standards. Infosys is using its patent-pending Logistics Optimization solution and carbon management tools to deliver the carbon footprint analysis to Wrigley as a managed information service. -

This May we witnessed a great transformation during a traditionally television- centric time of the year. Referred to as the Upfront, TV networks showcase their fall shows and highlight what American consumers’ love: content. The Upfront draws the interest of advertisers and media networks as they engage in an elaborate negotiation and collaboration around the buying and selling of advertising inventory for the coming season. This year was different. Early conversations around time-shifting and digital became very real. Upfront talks around shifting some deals from Live+3 days to Live+7 days, digital rights, DOUNIA TURRILL and programmatic buying, have those of us in the media and advertising industry SVP INSIGHTS, NIELSEN on the edge of our seats.

Capturing the attention of Millennials in growing numbers, these agile powerhouses challenge the media landscape. And, at the risk of being repetitive, the American consumer has never before engaged with more content across media type, media devices and content type.

Through a series of in-depth interviews it explores the phenomenon, investigating both how and why TV consumers are using social media to talk about TV content while watching it. The findings of this thesis include numerous insights about the viewing behavior associated with synchronous Social TV, covering several different aspects: Driving forces, the context in which Social TV viewing takes place, the features of the content being consumed, with whom and how Social TV viewers are interacting with each other, identified barriers and needs, as well as perceived effects on the TV viewing experience. It becomes evident that TV viewers consider the act of watching TV as a highly social activity, seeking to share it with other like-minded individuals, using social media to recreate the experience of watching together as a co-located group. -

VAB - INSIGHTS REPORT 2019 ................. Left To Your Own Devices Understanding Consumption In Today’s Connected World Q4 2018 Contents Summary 3 Media Consumption Overview 4-8 Video Device Segmentation 9-14 4th Quarter Holiday TV Viewing Habits 15-17 Ad-Supported Multiscreen TV Brands 18-23 Cinema Highlight Reel 24-26 Contact Information 27 Appendix I – Major Ethnicities’ Device Usage 28-30 Appendix II – Live vs. Time-Shifted TV Viewing 31-33 2 Summary In our latest quarterly report surveying the video landscape, Left To Your Own Devices, we update the media consumption habits of major demographic segments based on recently released Q4 ’18 data and take a deeper look into TV viewing habits during popular Q4 holidays. Consumers are living in a video world – it accounted for over 50% of the 11+ hours that people spend with media per day in Q4 ‘18 - but it’s important to note that Television reigns as the leader of this world, with “live TV” representing nearly 70% of total video viewing. However, we know that different demographics and people in different life stages may consume media differently than others and these behaviors continue to evolve. In recognition of this, we’ve updated our comprehensive segmentation analysis highlighting the who, what, where, when and how by device, which explores the nuances that exist within the video ecosystem. Although overall time spent with Television (the device) has decreased, as video viewing grows on alternative devices such as connected devices and smartphones, ad-supported multiscreen TV
