Tally Ho at the Alamo Seminar, 2015, San Antonio, Texas
Growing up in Palo Alto, TODD KRIZELMAN was born and raised near the epicenter of technology innovation. It was this early exposure that encouraged him to be an entrepreneur and co-found of one of the world’s first social media sites, theGlobe.com.
From 1994 to 2001, he led theGlobe.com from inception to taking it public on NASDAQ; this online community grew to 20 million monthly users and was a Top 25 site for five consecutive years.
After, Krizelman joined the largest European media company, Bertelsmann, where he worked for their publishing businesses, Gruner + Jahr and Random House. It was then that he began to recognize the challenges of selling advertising including lack of data, time-intensive research, and the increasingly fragmented landscape of advertising.
With his expertise in ad sales and innovation, Krizelman joined veteran web architect, Jesse Keller, to found MediaRadar in 2007. After years of thorough research, development, and data collection, MediaRadar is now the most comprehensive, data company focused on the ad sales market.
Krizelman is a graduate of Cornell University and Harvard Business School.
“We’re continually investing in building advanced solutions – online, in print, and in social media – as the publishers we serve expand into new media. Innovating new technologies that give our clients a competitive advantage is central to who we are.”
