The position will report to the Chief Revenue officer of the Company.

"Bringing onboard the deep behavioral targeting and data expertise that Damian embodies will further enhance our ability to meet the targeting demands of our agency, network and demand side platform customers, while helping to grow revenue for our data partners who deliver over 170M monthly UV to the eXchange," noted Mark Zagorski, eXelate's Chief Revenue Officer. "We are truly excited to bring such seasoned leadership to the team."

Damian Garbaccio (38) will manage the sales and business development efforts on both the "supply" and "demand" sides of the eXelate eXchange, helping to grow the data marketplace's pool of targeting data on over 170M Monthly UV and buying roster of over 40 media buying agencies, ad networks, and demand side platforms.
