PubMatic、新CMOとしてAudienceScienceやSundaySkyでの経験があるHirsch氏を採用

2016.7.29

PubMatic, the marketing automation software company for publishers, today announced that in the first half of 2016, its mobile, video and native platform spend grew more than 50 percent year-over-year. The company went on to state that it is cash flow positive, following its third full year of profitability in 2015 on an adjusted EBITDA basis. To capitalize on this momentum, veteran digital media executive Jeff Hirsch has joined the company as Chief Marketing Officer.

“Consumers continue to increase the time they spend on mobile devices and our focus on relevant solutions is resulting in significant upside for our customers,” said Rajeev Goel, Co-Founder & CEO of PubMatic. “Correspondingly, as the automation of media buying and selling matures, the demand for scalable and efficient direct deals has increased. Our enhanced ad decisioning is proving invaluable for these types of transactions. As a result of our focus on these industry trends, PubMatic achieved 12-month performance highs in daily run rate, daily Private Marketplace spend, and daily mobile monetization.”

To accelerate its global growth, PubMatic is expanding its executive team with the appointment of Jeff Hirsch as the company’s Chief Marketing Officer. Hirsch will leverage his over 30 years of experience to help PubMatic continue to tap the growing programmatic market. Prior to PubMatic, Hirsch held multiple executive roles in the industry including President/CEO of data technology company AudienceScience, President of CPXi, founder and CRO of Fastclick, and most recently CMO at SundaySky.

“Jeff and I first worked together when he was the CEO of AudienceScience and I was President of Digital at Time Inc. We shared similar views on how the publishing industry can flourish going forward. I’m delighted that he will be joining the company as we build upon our current success,” said Kirk McDonald, President of PubMatic. “Jeff’s experience in the industry, his executive experience and his expertise in marketing and sales will strengthen the PubMatic team and support our goal of helping the media industry thrive.”

Hirsch added, “I am impressed with PubMatic’s position in the market. We work with some of the largest and most influential media companies in the world, we boast significant technology assets and we can point to profitable growth that is not often seen in this space. I am especially excited about our launch of new automation solutions in the coming months and I look forward to working with the team to continue our growth trajectory.”
