FRIDAY HARBOR, WA--(Marketwire - April 23, 2010) - Strategic News Service is proud to announce that Impact Radius has been selected as a 2010 FiReStarter company, to be featured at its annual Future in Review technology conference. FiReStarter companies are selected based on their potential to bring positive change to the world, and are showcased during the conference, both at an exclusive investor reception and in panels throughout the conference.
Impact Radius links performance advertising to TV, radio, print, and online distribution channels, delivering opportunities for growth and profit to advertisers and media partners. By providing the tools and technology to negotiate and manage relationships directly on a single multi-channel platform, Impact Radius is changing how performance deals are transacted across all media channels. With its "clear box" philosophy, Impact Radius is paving a new road for performance advertising by increasing transparency in relationships and improving decision-making for media partners, advertisers, and agencies.
"Impact Radius has launched its platform to change the way advertising deals are transacted across all media channels. As an alternative to the historic 'black box' approach that has become a mainstay, we are championing a new direction for the industry with our 'clear box' philosophy by increasing transparency in relationships and improving decision-making for media partners, advertisers and agencies," said Per Petterson, co-founder of Impact Radius and scheduled speaker at FiRe 2010. "By sharing our business model with like-minded innovators at FiRe 2010, we look forward to engaging and discovering catalysts for further developments."
