aiMatch Cites Brand Trust, Data Accuracy as Drivers for Selecting Digital Element's IP Intelligence Solution

NEW YORK and ATLANTA, Nov. 4, 2010 /PRNewswire/ -- ad:tech -- aiMatch, an ad serving platform focused on delivering digital advertising technology and services to online publishers, brings with it more than a decade of industry experience, including its trust in Digital Element's IP Intelligence solutions, which enables online advertisers and marketers to perfect audience segmentation and targeting capabilities.

aiMatch founders have worked together extensively since 1996. Founders Jeff Wood, Guy Taylor and Ryan Treichler have more than 40 years of combined experience in the online advertising industry and have spent more than 10 years working together at Microsoft, aQuantive, Accipiter and Engage.

While at Engage, Ryan Treichler, who currently serves as CVO and vice president of product management at aiMatch, was an early adopter of Digital Element's geotargeting technology and quickly realized the strategic advantage it brought to the online advertising world.

"Engage was one of the first ad-serving companies to use Digital Element's IP Intelligence technology," said Treichler. "Now at aiMatch, we have continued our relationship with Digital Element, based not only on our past experience and trust in the technology, but also in the company's ability, over time, to maintain its position as best of breed in the advertising industry. The technology continues to come out on top in regard to accuracy, and for a new company establishing its brand, such as aiMatch, that was a strong consideration."
