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 no a priori assumptions or categorisations. Centred on the user, it predicts and improves online advertising measures' chances of success by mapping actual customer interest.
