Crisp Drops “Wireless”; Changes Company Name to Crisp Media

Tools

Posted December 2, 2010

--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Media Alert:

Who: Crisp Wireless, a universal rich media ad platform provider.

What: The company today announced it is changing its name to Crisp Media. This change reflects the company’s evolution from a strictly mobile/wireless focus to delivering multi-platform rich media advertising solutions.

When: The change is effective as of today, December 2, 2010.

Why: The Company believes that mobile industry growth cannot happen while publishers and advertisers still need to create niche-advertising solutions for each mobile platform or device. Crisp Media delivers a universal ad platform for building, serving, measuring, and optimizing interactive campaigns across desktop and mobile Web, mobile apps, tablets, and connected TVs.

“In 2011, we will see the full integration of mobile into digital advertising strategies as agencies and publishers prepare to execute ad buys across multiple properties, devices, and platforms,” said Boris Fridman, CEO of Crisp Media. “We are breaking down these silos and removing obstacles to enable the industry to move forward with HTML5-based rich media ad formats; multi-platform, open ad delivery; and unified engagement metrics. It is a no-brainer that our name should reflect our mission to deliver rich, interactive ads to all media.”
