1 Navigating Programmatic Advertising – David Nelson – Limelight Inc 27:08

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedMike is joined by David Nelson, Co-Founder and CEO of Limelight Inc, to discuss programmatic advertising. David shares insights from his career, starting in the insurance industry and transitioning into digital marketing and ad tech. He explains how Limelight operates as a programmatic advertising trading platform, connecting publishers and advertisers. David also highlights the unique challenges marketers face in the programmatic landscape and how Limelight uses context and data to enhance ad performance. About Limelight Inc Founded in London in 2018, Limelight Inc. was created as an answer to the complexity and inefficiency of the ad tech world. The industry, while tech accelerated lacked clarity and experienced human oversight, leaving professionals ill-equipped and frustrated in a maze of complex tools and processes. David Nelson and James Macdonald, co-founders of the company and pioneers in the media world, realized that the true power of programmatic advertising wasn’t just the technology, but also pairing it with real human expertise. Today Limelight Inc. combines cutting edge technology with a team of dedicated professionals, eager to guide and support. We don’t offer just a platform – we offer partnership, ensuring every one of our many members feels confident and empowered to navigate the programmatic space and serve advertisers more effectively. About David Nelson David Nelson is Co-founder & CEO of Limelight, his particular areas of focus are product development, technical development and client success. Prior to founding Limelight, David had been active within digital marketing for nearly 20 years. Most recently, a 2-year consultancy spell working closely with his co-founder, James Macdonald, gave them the time to formulate the plan for Limelight. Before this, David was with AdTech firm Rocket Fuel as VP Product & Operations EMEA. Rocket Fuel was acquired following a successful IPO by Sizemek in 2017. David’s experience also includes a successful exit after two years with Lumatag, a company he founded in 2013 to provide online tag management and business intelligence for publishers and ad networks. Outside of work, David is a keen tennis player, an enthusiastic appreciator of wine, and a collector of classic cars. He currently spends half of his year in Spain, where he has business interests in hospitality, and half in the UK.
