Because of our investments in monetization technology, content curation and our Multiple Customer Management (MCM) partnership with Google as well as other SSP and DSP partners (including Comcast, Verizon, PubMatic, and Unruly) and Agencies, we are growing our business at rates much higher than the overall industry. These solutions ensure we stay ahead of the increasingly complex needs of both our publishers and advertisers. We found a great financing partner to work with in SVB.
