Emeryville, CA - April 26, 2011 - TubeMogul, the brand-focused video marketing company, announced a key hire today: Max Mead, who will serve as Senior Vice President of Business Development.
Mead will lead business development at TubeMogul, with a focus on developing strategic partnerships with agency trading desks and brand marketers to harness TubeMogul's video advertising technology to deliver brand advertising at scale.
Mead's experience spans leadership positions on both the advertiser and publisher sides of the digital advertising industry. Prior to TubeMogul, Mead was Vice President of Business Development and Analytics at PointRoll, a leading provider of rich media advertising solutions. Before PointRoll, Mead spent seven years with CNET Networks as Vice President of Corporate Development, where he led the corporate acquisition team and was later in charge of finance, business development, search marketing and content syndication for the company's largest business unit.
TubeMogul more than doubled its staff in the past year, with strategic hires in engineering, client management and sales. The company's recent doubling of staff reflects the recent launch of the second generation of PlayTime, TubeMogul's brand-focused demand side platform for video advertising. PlayTime combines the branding power of video advertising with the efficiency of automated, real-time media buying and is built from the ground up to be best at delivering brand messages in real-time across placements, audiences, media types and sites.
"We are growing rapidly, and Max will help us develop new strategic partnerships and open up new opportunities," comments Brett Wilson, CEO and Co-Founder of TubeMogul. "We are pleased to welcome him to the team."
