We’re excited to announce that we’ve expanded our Search Retargeting technology into the German market. Germany is increasingly becoming synonymous with digital advertising and with the launch of our Hamburg office we’re hoping to grow our unique offering into Europe’s second largest market.
Sven Bagemihl, former managing director of Advertising.com (AOL) and chief sales officer for Wunderloop, will head up the office as managing director and will be responsible for building a strong German team who can match the rate of 280% year-on-year growth that we have enjoyed in the UK.
Captify CEO, Dominic Joseph
“Since launching in 2011, we’ve been able to grow the business exceptionally quickly. We’re ambitious and operating in a growing market, so we’re seeking to replicate that success in Germany, where digital advertising is increasing at a fervent pace. To get it right, we need to ensure that we’re investing in a solid local team on the ground.
“We are confident that with him [Sven] on board, we can truly continue on our journey to disrupt and transform the European digital advertising landscape.”
We’re extremely excited to have Sven on board and have every belief that he will be an immense success for us.
Germany MD, Sven Bagemihl
“I am immensely proud to be joining such a fast-paced, high growth company, which is operating right at the heart of a truly exciting space in European advertising today. I am looking forward to making Captify’s technology famous in Germany, and all the challenges and opportunities that this will inevitably bring.”
But why Hamburg?
Captify COO, Vincent Potier
“There’s no doubt that Berlin is a fantastic place for startups; it’s vibrant, economic, and a fast-growing place for small businesses in the technology sector. But Hamburg offers a great platform for a company like Captify that’s expanding rapidly,” Potier explained.
“It’s the largest city for media, the second largest city for advertising agencies, and the main hub of the German ad tech industry. That makes it a perfect place from which to hire the right people and grow our business further in Europe.”
Adding to our London headquarters and our Development office in Kiev, our Hamburg office marks the next major step for Captify. We’re immensely excited to see Sven and all the new German Captify team continue to propel the business to great new heights.
