Velocidi Opens Offices in Dublin to Address Growing Market Demand

DUBLIN, March 29, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Velocidi, a marketing intelligence platform that helps brands and agencies harness data to make smarter decisions faster, today announced its European expansion with a new office in Dublin. Headquartered in New York City, the company is opening this new hub to build upon Velocidi's success in North America and accelerate the company's ability to address European market needs.

To help fund the company's growth in Europe, Velocidi recently completed a $12 million Series A growth equity financing round, led by Pilot Growth Equity with additional investment from Neuberger Berman Private Equity Funds.

The Dublin office is located in George's Quay, and will be led by Alan McNab, managing director, EMEA. McNab brings 20 years of experience in technology marketing to his role with Velocidi. Previously, he held leadership positions at global brands like Arista, Cisco, HP and Motorola.

"Our growing, global customer base is driving the need for us to expand to a European hub," explained David Dunne, CEO and founder of Velocidi. "Our sales and marketing teams have already established success in Europe, and we are eager to help even more customers by increasing our footprint in the region."

"This is a compelling time to be part of the Velocidi team as marketers are looking for new solutions to solve data problems," said McNab. "Velocidi's European offices put us in a stronger position to address the unique data needs of our European customers."

The cloud-based platform connects multi-channel data points from different media and marketing sources into a single, holistic view.
