This week’s BIG move: Turn Left introduces Logan.ai to African market
Turn Left, LinkedIn’s official partner in Sub-Saharan Africa, has announced its partnership with global adtech platform Logan.ai, bringing a new generation of AI-powered, cookieless advertising solutions to agencies and brands across the region.
As the industry accelerates toward a privacy-first future, Logan.ai offers a fundamentally different
approach to digital advertising, one that does not rely on third-party cookies or invasive data
tracking. Instead, its proprietary ‘super small data’ methodology uses advanced AI to identify and
reach high-value audiences with precision, while remaining fully compliant with evolving global privacy standards.
Logan.ai enables advertisers to execute campaigns seamlessly across multiple channels — including mobile, video, connected TV (CTV), audio, digital out-of-home (DOOH), and in-game environments — all within a single, unified platform. This omnichannel capability allows agencies to scale campaigns efficiently while maintaining consistent audience targeting and measurement.
“Agencies are under increasing pressure to deliver results in a world where traditional data signals are disappearing,” said Marius Greeff, Managing Director at Turn Left. “Logan.ai provides a future-proof solution — combining AI-driven targeting, privacy compliance, and true omnichannel scale in a way that simplifies media buying and improves performance.”
Turn Left will act as the exclusive in-market partner, supporting agencies with local expertise, strategic guidance, and hands-on campaign execution. With a strong history of representing global platforms such as LinkedIn and Bloomberg, Turn Left is well-positioned to help agencies unlock the full value of Logan.ai’s capabilities.
“Our role is to bridge global innovation with local market understanding,” added Greeff. “We’re excited to introduce Logan.ai to agencies and provide the support they need to confidently adopt this next evolution of advertising.”

Business moves
PR and executive LinkedIn presence converge as Headlines and FDC formalise strategic partnership
Specialist PR agency Headlines and FDC, experts in executive-led marketing on LinkedIn, have formalised a strategic partnership in direct response to this evolving landscape.
LinkedIn has become the primary professional market infrastructure through which leaders sustain credibility, express perspective and build ongoing trust directly with decision-makers, investors, and senior talent. When that presence is inactive, inconsistent, or misaligned, the market fills in the blanks.
“The true value of an executive’s professional presence is unlocked when it is validated by trusted third-party media. This partnership with Headlines closes the loop, allowing our clients to move beyond the personal profile, strengthening their market authority and sustaining their credibility with external validation,” says Jacques Lombard, head of partnerships at FDC.
Earned media addresses a different dimension of the same challenge. Independent editorial validation builds the external authority that a platform presence alone cannot confer. Aligning the two allows leadership profiles to develop with greater coherence, consistency, and commercial impact over time.
This partnership reflects a broader shift in how organisations approach leadership reputation: audiences, whether investors, partners, clients, or senior talent, expect leaders to be present, credible, and consistent across both traditional media and professional platforms, with each channel reinforcing the other.
Exabeam confronts AI insider threats
Exabeam has announced a major expansion of Exabeam Agent Behavior Analytics (ABA).
Without direct visibility into how employees are using AI assistants — what they query, what data they share, how frequently they interact, and from where — organisations cannot baseline normal AI behavior, investigate possible misuse, or detect emerging agentic insider threats.
New support to detect agent behavior in OpenAI ChatGPT and Microsoft Copilot, alongside existing visibility into Google Gemini, transforms these agentic services into rich sources of behavior telemetry that feed directly into Exabeam threat detection, investigation, and response (TDIR) workflows.
“AI agents are evolving from simple chatbots into autonomous digital workers,” said Steve Wilson, chief AI and product officer at Exabeam. “
They authenticate, access systems, and execute real business processes. When compromised, their activity will often look legitimate. Guardrails designed to catch prompt injection or hallucinations do not address that risk. Securing digital workers requires deep visibility into baseline behavior and the ability to detect subtle deviations before they become material incidents.”
