Videology Signs Rhys McLachlan as Corporate Development Director

LONDON, October 20, 2011/PRNewswire/ --

Becomes No 1 UK ad platform after just 10 months in market

Videology, the UK's leading video advertising solutions platform,
announced today that Rhys McLachlan has been appointed to the newly created
position of Commercial Development Director, reporting into Ryan Jamboretz,
Managing Director EMEA and Global Chief Development Officer.

Rhys, based in London, will lead client services and help agencies and
their clients manage the expansion of video advertising from PC to mobile,
tablet and other devices. He will also help lead the platform's expansion
across Europe.

This planned expansion programme will augment the company's impressive
growth record. Since launching in the UK in January 2011, Videology has
grown to become the highest-reaching in-stream video ad platform in the
country. (Comscore, Sept 2011.)

Videology has attracted significant volumes of business from agencies
and built an impressive publisher network based on its ability to deliver
video advertising solutions that eliminate potential errors in both
targeting and measurement, helping to improve performance and ROI for
digital video campaigns while boosting publisher revenues.

McLachlan comes to Videology after an eight-year tenure at MediaCom,
where he was Managing Partner, Futures & Implementation. During his time at
MediaCom, he has been instrumental in the activation of their market leading
approach to VOD and several industry firsts, including web-connected TV
opportunities and the implementation of the UK's first addressable IPTV
solution.

"Rhys has unsurpassed insight into the emerging, multi-screen
marketplace, and by extension, how marketers must adjust their media
strategies to capitalize on these changes," said Jamboretz. "His
contributions to Videology will be instrumental to our continued growth, as
we seek to demonstrate and maximise the value that we bring to agencies and
their clients within the increasingly integrated, data-driven video space."

"While we're sorry to see Rhys leave the MediaCom family, fortunately,
in his new role, we will continue to benefit from his talent and
experience," said Steve Bignell, Chief Operating Officer for MediaCom. "We
look forward to working closely with Rhys as MediaCom and GroupM continue to
develop and evolve the productive relationship with Videology that we've
forged over the last 12 months."

McLachlan started his media career in the buying group of McCann
Erickson in 1995, where he rose to the position of TV Associate Director
during an eight-year tenure with the company.
