Company to Report 2013 First Quarter Results on May 8, 2013
BALTIMORE – Millennial Media Inc., the mobile advertising and data platform, has closed its acquisition of Metaresolver – a mobile media buying and targeting platform. Metaresolver was founded by industry veterans, Seamus McAteer, Mike Rowehl and Cindy Mesaros, each of whom are pioneers who have shaped mobile media intelligence, mobile advertising and mobile content. The addition of this talented and experienced team, along with a programmatic mobile ad-tech platform, will enable Millennial to strengthen its leadership position in the fast moving mobile market.
Upon closing the acquisition, Millennial Media will streamline the combined company’s leadership team. In the new structure, reporting to Paul Palmieri, Chairman and CEO, Mollie Spilman will become EVP, Global Sales & Marketing, Matt Gillis will become EVP, Global Product & Platform, and Michael Avon, the company’s CFO & EVP, will add Corporate Strategy and Human Resources to his organization. Seamus McAteer, Mike Rowehl and Cindy Mesaros from Metaresolver will join the leadership team and lead Insights, Programmatic Platform and Global Marketing efforts for Millennial respectively. Marcus Startzel, formerly GM, North America, will report to Spilman as Global Chief Revenue Officer and Carl Wartzack will report to Spilman as SVP Global Operations. As a result of this combination and leadership restructuring, Chris Brandenburg, CTO, and Steven Root, EVP, will be leaving the company.
Paul Palmieri said, “I am thrilled to have the Metaresolver team and platform as a part of Millennial Media. We are entering the company’s next phase of growth and the Metaresolver acquisition of people and technology, along with a streamlined executive team, will help us continue to expand our leadership position in the exciting market of mobile advertising.”
