Day one of the event features Upfront presentations by Black-owned media partners including Entertainment Studios\u2019 The Grio, Essence Communications, Inc., Revolt and Urban One, as well as Black-targeted networks BET and OWN. Later in the week, the event will share presentations from more Black-owned media partners including Blavity, Black Enterprise, Ebony &amp; Jet, Mirror Digital, National Association of Black Owned Broadcasters (\u201cNABOB\u201d), American Urban Radio Networks, Central City Productions TV, NuTime Media, The Source and ReachTV.\n<\/p>\n<p id=\"news-body-cta\">This press release features multimedia.

The rest of the week will feature additional media partner presentations. The goal of these presentations is twofold: giving the partners the opportunity and access to Mediabrands clients and learning about how to market to them. For clients, it provides the opportunity to understand the importance of Black audiences and why they should target them in their media investment strategies.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nMAGNA plans to host subsequent monthly Equity experiences focusing on specific media channels and has already earmarked April to focus on Black audio and podcast media properties. The Equity Upfront\u2122 will initially focus on partnerships with Black-owned and Black-targeted media businesses, with future efforts expanding to include other underrepresented media platforms including, but not limited to, the Latinx, Asian and LGBTQIA+ audiences.\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cWe are excited to host the kickoff of our Equity Upfront\u2122 initiative by welcoming Black-owned and Black-targeted media partners to present to our clients,\u201d said Joy Profet, EVP, Head of Growth &amp; Operations, MAGNA. \u201cThis event is one tactic in a bigger strategy to build deeper partnerships with and access for platforms that create engaging and responsible content for valuable and influential Black audiences. We hope to add even more media partners as the Equity Upfront\u2122 gains increased industry recognition.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\n\u201cWe must take accountable steps forward to address the inequities in how we invest, said Dani Benowitz, President, U.S., MAGNA. \u201cThis is the start of MAGNA and Mediabrands\u2019 work, focusing on giving access to media partners across BIPOC audiences and helping to gear investment strategies toward multicultural consumers. MAGNA intelligence was critical in revealing growing media consumption habits and the ever-increasing buying power of these important audiences. It\u2019s a logical step to educate our clients and agency partners so they can include them in this year\u2019s media strategy.\u201d\n<\/p>\n<p>\nFor more information please contact <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"mailto:comms@mbww.com\">comms@mbww.com<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n<p><b><span class=\"bwuline\">ABOUT MEDIABRANDS<\/span>:<\/b><\/p>\n<p>\nIPG Mediabrands is the media and marketing solutions division of Interpublic Group (NYSE: IPG).
