The Tumri solution - the AdPod - enables advertisers to craft highly targeted marketing messages to consumers on-the-fly. The Tumri platform seamlessly deconstructs ad creatives into core sub-components, then enables advertisers to adjust each sub-component by targeting parameters or optimize by performance metrics.

The Company today announced that it has added over $15 million in new capital. The capital investment includes over $10 million in equity from Time Warner Investments and existing investors Accel Partners, Shasta Ventures and Tenaya Capital, as well as $5 million in debt commitment from Silicon Valley Bank.

With Tumri's outstanding executive team and its proven, scalable products that perform impressively for advertisers and partners, we believe Tumri is a clear leader in this exciting space."

Tumri's recent C-level hires and Yahoo! Smart Ads partnership, combined with the impressive capital investment, solidifies the company's ability to extend its leadership position. The Tumri platform is enabling global brands to marry the high reach and branding impact of display with ROI results on par with search.
