NEW YORK, May 12, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Taboola, the world's leading discovery platform, today announced an exclusive and strategic multiple-year deal with the NBCUniversal Owned Television Stations division of NBCUniversal, which includes 42 NBC and Telemundo owned stations and more than thirty digital local sites.

Taboola's products and technology, coupled with their ability to drive meaningful user engagement to our sites, has more than proven its value for us," said Shawn Makhijani, Senior Vice President of Business Development and Strategy, NBCUniversal Owned Television Stations. "Given our long history and successful track record with Taboola, the decision to renew our partnership was an easy one."

"I could not be more excited to continue our long standing partnership with the NBC and Telemundo owned stations division as the group continues to drive innovation on the local level to help inform audiences in any language through their high-caliber local journalism," added Adam Singolda, Founder and CEO, Taboola. "This partnership is very important to us, and we will continue to double-down on quality journalism for users in the U.S. and around the globe."

This partnership follows the recent deal between Taboola and NBC News which extended its strategic relationship for an additional five-years.
