NEW YORK, March 24, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- ArcSpan Technologies (www.arcspan.com), a New York-based, real-time audience data monetization and optimization company announced it has named Kathryn Burns as Vice President, Product. As a member of ArcSpan's leadership team, Burns is tasked with overseeing the delivery of a robust product roadmap.
