The purchase accelerates the company’s strategy to provide its customers with the most intelligent way to predictably drive brand results.
“Consumers are mobile, and understanding their brand preferences outside the browser is critical to marketers,” said Tom Phillips, CEO of m6d. “For the past two years, m6d and ESM have partnered successfully to provide scalable audience and contextual solutions that help brands connect with consumers in any relevant environment. Now is the right time to combine massive data sets from both browsers and devices to establish multi-platform intelligence for directing marketing messages. The acquisition of ESM is a natural extension of our existing business and core strengths.”
“m6d has given us a powerful engine for driving our digital advertising goals,” said Ming Wu, General Manager, Accuen US. “With this acquisition, I look forward to being able to do so with even greater accuracy and scale.”
“We’re thrilled to be part of m6d, a company that has pioneered the use of massive quantities of atomic data to provide powerful marketing solutions,” said Bob Geiman, former CEO of EveryScreen Media. “Since day one, ESM has helped companies access their audiences on mobile devices at scale. We’re looking forward to contributing our technology to a solution for marketers that has unprecedented power and dimension.”
Geiman joins the m6d team as Senior Advisor, along with ESM executives Josh Engroff, Tom O’Reilly and Lauren Moores, who assume the roles of GM of Mobile, VP of Mobile Technology and VP of Analytics, respectively.
“We couldn’t be more excited about this combination,” added Tom Phillips. “With this team and technology, we are poised to deliver the next great wave of marketing innovation, one that combines the powerful insights we derive from web browsing with location-based and other data from mobile devices.
