TabMo Opens North American Offices
TabMo, a French mobile demand-side platform (DSP), has made its programmatic mobile platform, Hawk, available to North American advertisers and agencies.
The company’s North American launch includes opening new offices in New York, Chicago and Los Angeles, as well as the hire of Leroy Holland, who will serve as managing director U.S., overseeing TabMo’s growth and client relationships in the U.S. market.
“As marketers continue to pursue their audiences in these unique environments, they’ll need technology that is built around mobile devices and delivery,” stated Holland. “The current desktop DSPs, while they have scale, are not meeting advertisers’ cross-device needs, and as a result, will not last in a mobile-dominant media landscape.”
