NEW YORK, NY and LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM and SANTA CLARA, CA--(Marketwired - Mar 18, 2015) - Videoplaza, an Ooyala company and Europe's leading provider of video advertising and monetization technology, today announced a partnership with TubeMogul (NASDAQ: TUBE), a leading enterprise software company for video advertising, to create a premium programmatic marketplace for global brands and broadcasters. Pairing TubeMogul's platform with Konnect, Videoplaza's sell-side programmatic solution, allows the world's top brands, agencies and trading desks using TubeMogul video advertising software to access Videoplaza's coveted international inventory comprised of premium video publishers, broadcasters and operators.

The partnership is telling of a major shift in digital video advertising as flagship brands and agencies continue allocating advertising budgets online. Together, TubeMogul and Videoplaza are building a secure, trusted and transparent programmatic marketplace for TubeMogul's globally recognized customers to buy high-quality online TV inventory directly, or via private networks, from Videoplaza's customers. Representing more than half of Europe's top broadcasters, Videoplaza customers now have access to additional income from the highest quality of campaigns that are relevant to their audiences and complimentary to their content, strengthening CPMs and creating a profitable value-add to their sales strategy.

"TubeMogul and Videoplaza are both leading the way for programmatic to become a reality in the new IP delivered TV world," says Maria Flores, vice president, programmatic for Videoplaza. "TubeMogul has done a phenomenal job creating innovation in this space -- their product suite and customer base are a testament to that -- and we're thrilled to integrate our services to accelerate efforts to bring mighty TV budgets to all digital screens."

Reports suggest that in 2015 programmatic digital video ad spend will more than triple. Leveraging Videoplaza's ad serving and management platform as well as their programmatic tool, Karbon and Konnect, respectively, customers are tapping into the immense revenue potential with programmatic. Having TubeMogul as a partner builds upon Videoplaza's well established assurance of being a reliable, software-minded partner with enterprise-class service, built for the world's premium content providers.
