SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--LiveRamp (NYSE: RAMP) today announced that CEO Scott Howe has been awarded the Interactive Advertising Bureau’s (IAB) Service of Excellence — Lifetime Commitment Award. Presented onstage at the 2026 IAB Annual Leadership Meeting, the award recognizes Howe’s transformative impact on the ecosystem and his career-long commitment to innovation.

“As the industry’s essential data collaboration network, LiveRamp’s trajectory has been shaped by Scott’s belief in open standards and collective progress,” said Lauren Dillard, CFO, LiveRamp. “He has successfully navigated the industry’s most volatile shifts, and is now doing the same for the AI era.
