Smaato, the leading global mobile ad exchange for developers, has been announced as a 2013 OnMedia 100 Top Private Company. Smaato was selected in the B2B, Advertising Networks category.
The OnMedia award is highly regarded, for privately held companies that are looking to the future of their industry by disrupting digital media, social commerce and the advertising world with their product and service offerings, as well as creating a high growth business, offering huge upside for potential investors. This year's award was chosen after deep analysis into each of the candidates businesses by the AlwaysOn editorial team, as well as a number of investment partners and industry experts from across the globe.
Smaato takes this recognition with great pride in response to the hard work and collaborative effort the team has put in, not only over the past year, but the life of the organization.
