“After two years of rapid expansion around the world, InMobi is in an excellent position to help global brands capitalize on mobile advertising’s reach, performance, and creative impact,” says Anne Frisbie, VP & managing director, N. America. “With 3G and 4G smartphones expected to be in the hands of nearly 2.75bn consumers globally by 2014, we are perfectly positioned to be a priority digital media buy for US global advertisers.”
