existing investors, including Avalon Ventures, Union Square Ventures and Time Warner Investments. "Simulmedia became profitable this quarter for first time, as audience-based buying on TV went from
'interesting concept' to large-scale testing," says Rich Levandov, a partner at Avalon Ventures. "and buyers are now building it in as part of their core TV media strategies." Simulmedia, Inc.
operates the Simulmedia Audience Network, a data-driven audience network for television.
