Interactive TV and smart TV application publisher Flingo has hired longtime digital advertising executive Jackson Huynh as its new chief operations officer.As COO, Huynh will be responsible for the ongoing development and global expansion of the
company's interactive TV software platform, Samba.
In the new post, Huynh brings over a decade of experience in digital advertising. Most recently, he served as the global head of AdMob ad operations for Google.
"With the proliferation of DVRs, over-the-top video, second screen apps, there is both great risk and opportunity in the world of advertising," said Huynh in a statement. "I believe Samba represents a unique opportunity at the intersection of TV and digital advertising, where TV marketers can leverage great technology to enable a cross-platform ad experience, and a strong team at Flingo to guide and execute a cohesive marketing strategy."
"Fragmentation is by most measures the single, biggest threat to traditional marketing investments. However, with our patented technologies and Jackson's leadership, we believe multiscreen viewing can become a huge asset and opportunity for the marketing industry," added Ashwin Navin, cofounder and CEO of Flingo, in a statement.
