Additionally, she will lead a team to build new strategic partnerships and relationships with TV networks, publishers, demand-side platforms (DSPs) and supply side platforms (SSPs).
“2017 was a transformational year for Tru Optik. We have started to establish our OTT Marketing Cloud as the de facto standard across OTT / CTV sector, forging partnerships with almost every major data company,” said Andre Swanston, CEO of Tru Optik. “Val has an outstanding record of working at some of the most successful tech companies in video and helping them expand into new markets.
