“CMOs are investing in technology to improve their teams’ ability to work more efficiently and collaboratively with greater visibility to results.

I’m excited to collaborate with the team to shape the product offering to meet the evolving needs of global marketing organizations,” said Wanda Young.

“VidMob is pioneering a new category by bringing data into the creative process. Marketers face mounting pressure to deliver more ROI with fewer resources which calls for innovation and agility. The platform VidMob built empowers brands to work faster and smarter and realize more value from creative activities. I am excited to help Alex and the team explore opportunities for continued growth,” said Pinkie Mayfield.

“VidMob has made a name for itself as a company that loves to solve hard problems.

VidMob’s technology is one of a kind and I am thrilled to help the team scale the rollout of the world’s first operating system for Intelligent Creative,” said Antonio Lucio.
