Brilig Named to 2012 AlwaysOn OnMedia "20 to Watch" List

NEW YORK, Feb. 16, 2012  /PRNewswire/ -- Brilig, the only cooperative data marketplace for online advertising, today announced that it had been named to the 2012 AlwaysOn OnMedia "20 to Watch" list of the top emerging private companies in media, advertising, marketing, branding and public relations. The list was selected by the AlwaysOn editorial team and industry experts spanning the globe and showcases companies that are likely to disrupt existing markets and entrenched players and was based on a set of five criteria: innovation, market potential, commercialization, stakeholder value, and media buzz.

"Being named to the '20 to Watch list' is a great honor for Brilig, as well as further evidence that our cooperative data marketplace is permanently changing the way ad targeting is done," said Paul Cimino, Chief Executive Officer. "Unlike other approaches, Brilig creates tools that our members can use to explore, discover and buy segments that find the audience they want, and increase campaign lift substantially."

"The make-up of OnMedia 20 Companies to Watch represents forward-thinking media companies in a year charged with disruptive change.  The emergence of Web-fueled TV and the explosive growth of smartphones and tablets are challenging the media world to transform itself into a global, consumer-focused industry. Coupled with the socialization of everything, this year's digital media and entertainment startups are boldly charging into future, ready to reinvent the establishment with new, invigorating products and services," says Tony Perkins, founder and editor of AlwaysOn. "Web analytics are now embracing a social world, providing marketing and advertising companies with the targeted data that delivers on the promise of reaching consumers with meaningful, actionable messages."
