Blyk UK CEO Shaun Gregory has resigned, citing personal reasons. His role is being taken by Blyk Co-founder and Chief Executive, Antti hrling.
In 2008 Blyk achieved milestones in member and advertiser growth in the UK and it was a pivotal year for Blyk in demonstrating that the model works for both young people and advertisers alike, says hrling. We thank Shaun for his contribution to this success.
hrling co-founded Blyk in 2006 with former Nokia president, Pekka Ala-Pietil, and has been a driving force in the company's strategic direction. While hrling takes charge of UK operations, Ala-Pietil will lead Blyk's international media partnering initiatives. Blyk recently secured an additional 40 million (35 million) in funding to support its ongoing operations and international expansion.
