bmp media investors AG: bmp took part in financing mbr targeting
Berlin, 09 July 2012
Targeted&secure: MBR Targeting GmbH successfully completes first round of
financing
The Berlin-based company MBR Targeting GmbH founded in September 2011 is
receiving a high six-digit amount of growth capital from VC Fonds
Technologie Berlin, bmp media investors AG (ISIN DE0003304200), Dirk
Freytag and two other business angels for its broad-based market launch.
Managers Pablo Metz and Christoph Tavan and the other founders retain their
majority in the company.
MBR Targeting has developed its own technology that makes it possible, by
applying data analysis methods, algorithms and software, to present
advertising and products on the internet in real time and appropriate for
each individual user, without recording individual user behaviour. With its
innovative targeting method, it increases the relevance of advertising
focus and product recommendations, contributing significantly to its
customers' success: efficient application of funds to win customers and
increase revenue.
To mark the financing round, Pablo Metz explained: 'We are delighted about
the participation of this experienced and well connected group of investors
and grateful for their confidence in us and our young company. We will use
the funds to strengthen our international sales using these excellent
contacts. In terms of technology, we are continuing to develop our
software and will advance its further integration into ad server and
e-commerce solutions in particular.'
Jens Spyrka, member of the Executive Board of bmp media investors AG,
explains: 'Targeting continues to play a key role in online advertising and
is a must for advertisers if they want to avoid coverage waste and increase
perception rates. The industry relies heavily on targeting solutions in
online advertising. The decision makers have recognised the advantages and
the influence of this technology. With this investment we are keeping our
focus on this exciting market and see good opportunities for development.'
Dirk Freytag, entrepreneur and renowned expert in digital marketing and
advertising, says: 'For me, the idea of increasing efficiency in online
marketing has always been important and an inescapable fact of the
development of the market. MBR Targeting makes this possible with an
outstanding solution, entering the market for an extremely exciting and
promising area of commercial internet use.'
Clemens Kabel, authorised signatory at IBB Beteiligungsgesellschaft mbH,
adds: 'MBR Targeting's solution is increasing the success of advertising
measures for e-commerce platforms and online advertisers, who are all
suffering from large amounts of coverage waste. What particularly convinced
us was the combination of the young operative team and the established
specialist expertise of the technically minded founders.'
With its innovative proprietary targeting method, mbr targeting GmbH
increases the profitability of advertising focus and product
recommendations.
The company has an algorithm that can analyse and dynamically structure
very large data networks automatically and objectively because it makes noa priori assumptions or categorisations. Centred on the user, it predicts
and improves online advertising measures' chances of success by mapping
actual customer interest.
