ad:tech Announces Startup Spotlight Series Competition at ad:tech San Francisco
Sixteen Startups. Six Judges. Four Categories. Who Will Win?

(firmenpresse) - SAN FRANCISCO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 03/21/12 -- ad:tech San Francisco, the largest digital marketing show in the world, announced the ad:tech Startup Spotlight Series to find and reward the most innovative, enterprising new companies in digital marketing. Startups will compete in four categories: Social, Mobile, Video, and Data and Targeting.
The competition started in January when ad:tech invited a group of agency executives, venture capital firms and entrepreneurs to be the judges. After dozens of companies answered the call for startups, the judges narrowed down entrants to just 16 finalists. During the Startup Spotlight Series sessions at ad:tech, the companies will pitch their platforms as if they were competing to win a real client account. To win, they can't just talk about how they'll help advertisers -- they have to demonstrate it. Four companies will compete in each category, and the judges will choose one from each group to win the ad:tech Innovation Award.
