"Asia is one of the most exciting parts of Keek's global story, and the opportunity in China is immeasurable. The growth trajectory for mobile-video social sharing in China is explosive as technological conditions mature and 4G penetration takes root," said Lin Dai, Keek CMO. "The opportunity for Keek as the largest independent global player in the mobile-video social network space is enormous. Jonathan is a leader with extensive experience and connections in the Chinese market to develop the right partnerships that can super-charge Keek's growth. I can't wait for Keek to be the video app of choice for over 1.3 billion people in China."

Dillon said: "Keek has seen impressive and diversified growth globally under its new management team. I'm excited to join a team of stellar executives who are aggressively looking to deepen Keek's penetration in existing markets, and enter new ones. With mobile adoption and usage rates like we have rarely seen before in the West, China is an ideal market for Keek's mobile-video social sharing product, for consumers and marketers alike."
