LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Shine Technologies, the company dedicated to helping consumers protect themselves from negative advertising practices, is today announcing that James Collier has joined as Chief Revenue Officer.
Collier is tasked with working with the ad industry to evolve the current online advertising experience to one that puts consumer consent and choice at the center, whilst providing a cleaner and more valuable environment for brands, publishers and app developers.
Shine CEO and co-founder Ron Porat said: "James comes to Shine as an advertising & technology sector veteran, with the ideal background and experience to help Shine evolve online advertising for the better. I’m positive James will prove incredibly effective as we launch the next phase of Shine."
