About

One of the largest marketing technology and data companies globally, operating as a key data and identity asset within Publicis Groupe

Epsilon is a marketing technology firm acquired by Publicis Groupe in 2019, now operating as a central pillar of that global network with more than 8,000 employees across over 40 offices worldwide. The company helps clients activate first-party data across channels and devices while maintaining consumer privacy, connecting advertisers with consumers in ways designed to drive measurable performance. A people-based identity graph enables brands, agencies, and publishers to reach verified individuals rather than cookies or devices across the open web. For publishers specifically, the platform offers advanced audience targeting, behavioral segmentation, personalization through Conversant, omnichannel support spanning display, mobile, video, and email, real-time campaign tracking, and access to an advertiser network with a matching mechanism designed to improve ad fill rates.
