We're also glad to be adding senior personnel from leading companies across the UK and EMEA to our team."
PubMatic also announced several new additions to its EMEA leadership team including John Stoneman promoted to the position of VP EMEA from his prior role as Senior Advertising Solutions Director, International; Bill Swanson, formerly at News International and Independent News & Media, appointed to the newly created role of Country Manager, UK; Frederick Leuschner, formerly at Google and Microsoft, joined as Business Development Director, EMEA; Daniel Wilson, previously at Amobee and EE joined as Senior Director Mobile and Video, International and Emma Newman, formerly at Microsoft, AOL and Clear Channel joined as Senior Marketing Director, International.
