“Mike has a long history of excellence in sales leadership within our industry,” said Co-Founder and CEO, David Kashak. “We’re excited to have him onboard as we drive the growth, scale and innovation across Connatix‘s holistic suite of video technology offerings and advance our mission of building a better advertising ecosystem for publishers and advertisers.”
As the digital advertising industry seeks more transparent, efficient and privacy friendly ways to engage consumers, demand for Connatix has continued to accelerate both in the U.S. and internationally. Last year, Connatix opened its UK office and expanded headcount in the EMEA region, following significant investment from Court Square Capital Partners.
Connatix has continued to drive and scale adoption of its intuitive contextual targeting solution, Deep Contextual™, with leading brands and agencies, while also deepening relationships with publishers looking to create, deliver and monetize online video. Caprio is the latest high-profile executive to join the Connatix team, following the appointments of SVP/GM of EMEA, Bill Swanson, and CFO, Joseph Pergola, in the second half of 2022.
“It has never been more important to entertain, educate and engage consumers with video,” said Caprio. “Connatix is leading the way in empowering brands and agencies to engage programmatically with the premium audiences across our publisher partners and powering a privacy-friendly open web using our player and proprietary contextual targeting. I’m excited to work with our talented team to drive growth for our publisher partners and brands.”
