Screenverse has appointed Chang Gao as its first ever CFO.
He will be responsible for scaling financial operations and supporting growth plans for the programmatic DOOH advertising and digital screen network provider, according to a press release.
Within the adtech landscape, Gao most recently served as SVP of finance and operations at search advertising company adMarketplace, and was previously director of FP&A at GroundTruth, where he was responsible for rapidly scaling both organizations. Throughout his career, he's also held positions at Thomson Reuters, American Express, and UBS.
"We are thrilled to welcome Chang Gao as the inaugural chief financial officer of Screenverse," David Weinfeld, CEO of Screenverse, said in the release.
