Boston, MA — Pixability, an online video advertising and marketing technology company, was named to Inc. Magazine’s Inc. 5000, an exclusive list of the nation’s fastest growing private companies. The list represents the most comprehensive look at America’s leading independent entrepreneurs. Pixability ranks 732 in what was the most competitive list in Inc. 5000’s 34-year history, and joins an elite group of technology companies that gained early exposure as Inc. 5000 honorees, including Yelp, Pandora, Dell, LinkedIn, and Zillow. The Inc. 5000 recognition solidifies Pixability’s leadership role within the online video ad tech ecosystem, which is fueling an aggressive shift of media allocations to digital, particularly online video. U.S. digital video ad spend is projected to rise by 30.4% this year alone, reaching $7.77 billion.[1]
