DigitalReef, a global technology company, launched today as a large-scale fully integrated mobile marketing and advertising platform. DigitalReef was founded by combining five prominent digital advertising and marketing companies: Flowsense, Imagination Unwired, IMOX, Lemmonet, and MobTarget. DigitalReef had a total network of 300 million+ registered users, 3.3 billion monthly impressions, and reached about 70% of LATAM mobile users at the time of its start.
DigitalReef's suite of products and services, when combined, offers a complete end-to-end solution for brands, marketers, and app developers looking for exposure on one of the world's leading direct-to-device advertising platforms. With a diverse product range spanning from virtual preloads to app recommendations and premium native inventory across LATAM, DigitalReef provides advertisers with several options to capitalize on their vast and expanding device manufacturer, app developer, and global carrier network. Furthermore, DigitalReef's client support experience makes it simple for marketers to take advantage of this new and very unique advertising channel.
DigitalReef collaborates with global carriers, device manufacturers, and app developers to collect unique device and app inventory and then positions its native digital network with brands and agencies worldwide, providing considerable ROI. DigitalReef uses powerful artificial intelligence capabilities throughout its vast data repository to give marketers a high degree of targeting and specific audience clusters to deliver outstanding performance results.
Because of DigitalReef's extensive reach in LATAM is a perfect channel for global advertisers and brands looking to enter this dynamic and expanding market. According to eMarketer, LATAM mobile advertising spend is expected to rise at a 19% compound yearly growth rate from $4.4 billion in 2017 to $10.5 billion by 2023.
Amazon, Bradesco, Heineken, Samsung, Starbucks, and Uber are among DigitalReef's clients and the major local and regional network operators in LATAM.
