SpotX has appointed Marco Ruivenkamp to the role of Managing Director of SpotX and smartclip, Benelux.

“SpotX has made great strides in recent years with all major Dutch broadcasters amongst its clientele. Besides offering the best technologies, both SpotX and smartclip stand out for their strong counsel and good account management. I am proud that I can now play a role in this,” added Marco Ruivenkamp, managing director, SpotX and smartclip for Benelux.

“Together with the team, I am fully committed to both the proactive management of supply and the facilitation of demand. I am very much looking forward to contributing to the continued expansion of SpotX and smartclip in the Benelux.”
