Outbrain, a technology platform that drives business results by engaging people across the open internet, has announced the appointment of Eve Solomon as MD publisher business development for its Asia-Pacific (APAC) region, including Japan.
With a nine-year tenure at Outbrain, the appointment is also a homecoming for Solomon, as she returns to her native Australia after almost a decade based in New York City. Most recently, Solomon spent four-and-a-half years managing the cross-functional team responsible for Outbrain's global strategic accounts.
In her new role, Solomon will be responsible for expanding Outbrain’s APAC supply business by creating new, premium publisher partnerships, and will focus on ensuring the right resources and support are provided to Outbrain's existing APAC business.
Solomon said it’s truly a welcome return for her to be back in her home country and join the Outbrain APAC team.
“Outbrain’s commitment to innovation while providing publishers the ability to maximise the impact of user engagement and loyalty is consistent across all markets," she said.
"I’m excited to continue driving growth and building strategic relationships that deliver results for our publisher partners across APAC."
Amrita de la Peña, MD for APAC at Outbrain, said Solomon's extensive experience and deep understanding of Outbrain's operations will undoubtedly strengthen its collaborative efforts across APAC.
"Together, we will drive strategic partnerships, deliver exceptional services to publishers, and ensure mutual success in the dynamic digital advertising landscape," she said.
Stephanie Himoff, EVP of global publishers at Outbrain, said Solomon's dedication, expertise, and passion for the industry make her a valuable addition to the APAC team.
"Her extensive experience on the publisher side, combined with her strategic mindset, will truly strengthen our relationships with publishers in the APAC region and drive mutual growth," she said.
