Hivestack (https://c212.net/c/link/?t=0&l=en&o=3489641-1&h=3692517773&u=https%3A%2F%2Fhivestack.com%2F&a=Hivestack),
the world's largest, independent, programmatic digital out of home (DOOH) ad
tech company today announced the appointment of Kira LeBlanc as Global CMO.
LeBlanc joined Hivestack in early 2021 when the company announced its global
expansion and has since expanded her role to VP of Global Marketing. She will
transition into her new role as CMO, effective April 1, 2022, where she will
continue to lead the team responsible for the Company's global marketing across
all of its 25+ markets.
Continued development of the global Hivestack brand and operations will be a
crucial part of the role but it will also be expected that the CMO brings a
wealth of experience working with international markets which require a focus
on building localized, relevant and authentic narratives. LeBlanc will report
directly to Andreas Soupliotis, Co-Founder and CEO of Hivestack, working
closely with the C-Suite. She will lead and scale the global marketing team
that includes digital marketing, product marketing, content, communications,
localization, creative as well as the regional marketing leads across EMEA, the
Americas and APAC.
Co-Founder & CEO of Hivestack, Andreas Soupliotis shared: "I am so very
thrilled to offer the well-deserved appointment of Global Chief Marketing
Officer to Kira. Kira has demonstrated a unique ability to dig deep into the
business while maintaining a prudent peripheral view of the industry. Since
joining Hivestack last year, she has played an integral role in supporting the
growth of our global operations and business development, building out our
multi-language digital and social media ecosystem, growing our team and the
necessary infrastructure for our marketing operations across countless new
markets. Her commitment to authenticity and detail is unparalleled which has
allowed for her to execute both a global and local strategy without losing the
important nuances of each. I am thrilled to have her join the C-Suite at
Hivestack alongside our talented global leadership team."
LeBlanc commented on her new appointment: "It's an honor to become a member of
such a high performance C-Suite team. Leading Hivetsack's marketing and brand
strategy during such a transformative time for our industry is an incredible
opportunity. As Global CMO I look forward to delivering across several key
priorities, including driving meaningful connections with DOOH publishers to
ensure they benefit from programmatic monetization via our SSP/Exchange and
ensuring they understand how they can maximize yield across programmatic and
direct sales channels via the Hivestack Ad Server and our recently announced

On the other side, I will seek to evangelize to
global agency and brand partners that they can plan, activate and measure DOOH
globally with great precision via our state-of-the art, audience-driven DSP, or
by working with our brilliant omni-channel DSP partners. Put succinctly, I am
thrilled to help shape the future of programmatic DOOH as Hivestack's Global
CMO."
Prior to Hivestack, LeBlanc held positions at globally scaled organizations
such as AOL, Oath, Verizon Media (now Yahoo) and several other digital media
companies, along with her former work as a consultant supporting small and
medium businesses and start-ups working on digital transformation. LeBlanc has
