Nick Stringer
Staff profile
Nick joined the IAB as its first head of regulatory affairs in April 2008. He leads the sector, both in the UK and at EU level, in working for the optimal policy environment for digital advertising, in particular on privacy issues, and helping to boost the understanding of digital media and its benefits within regulatory and political circles.
Nick led the work to publish the IAB’s Good Practice Principles for behavioural advertising in March 2009, providing new rules based around notice, choice and education to help guide the industry and enhance consumer trust. He is also vice-chair of IAB Europe’s Policy Committee (LINK), spearheading self-regulatory initiatives at EU level, including the recently launched pan-EU Framework for behavioural advertising.
In recognition of his achievements during his time at the IAB, Nick has twice been nominated in the Greatest Individual Contribution to New Media category at the NMA Awards – in 2009 and 2011.
Prior to joining the IAB, Nick worked at Orange, leading public policy issues across both mobile and broadband sectors.
