PubNative Announces Strategic Partnership with Leading Japanese SSP fluct

PubNative GmbH announced today that it has started trading programmatic (RTB) transactions with Japanese SSP fluct (HQ Tokyo, CEO Ken Doi), which operates an advertising platform and media business, to further accelerate its international reach and build connections between US/EU and Japan-based partners.

fluct serves over 39 billion impressions to 15,000+ affiliated media partners on PC and mobile every month in Japan. PubNative (HQ Berlin, CEO Ionut Ciobotaru) is one of the few independent mobile SSP and programmatic ad exchanges. This partnership will serve the interest of major EU brands using EU DSPs by allowing access to Japanese consumers.

“There has been significant interest for a long time for PubNative to break into the Japanese market. With the success of this partnership, we’re looking forward to expanding the relationship that would serve as a bridge between Japanese advertisers and our US or European publishers in the future.”
– Ionut Ciobotaru, Founder & CEO of PubNative
