From the right mix of ads and formats, to the selection of publishers, to the calibrated media buying, to the analysis of data, to the management of affiliates, and a lot more.”

While talking about its future, Elio explains, “ I am very excited by where mobile is going in terms of messaging apps. If you think about how relevant WhatsApp, Messenger, iMessage, SnapChat, WeChat, or Slack for enterprises have become, then we think that the way people are exchanging information is changing rapidly. Chat is the new UI. Messaging apps are the new browser, and so I think that soon a lot of mobile advertising is going to happen on those apps and platforms.”
