Matomy Media Group announces today theacquisition of Adperio, a leading online digital ad agency based in Denver, Colorado. The acquisition will be carried out gradually and the final value, estimated at $30 million, will be determined according to performance during the next four years.

“Joining Matomy Media Group brings breadth and depth to Adperio’s market proposition.” says David Asseoff, CEO of Adperio. “We are confident that our customers will profit from the vast know-how, experience and technology that the group offers in the display advertising and affiliate marketing channels. Moreover, our U.S. - based customers will be able to leverage the group’s strong global presence both in Europen and Latin American markets.” adds Asseoff.

According to Ofer Druker, CEO of Matomy Media Group, “During 2011 our revenue totals reached $100 million mainly from Europe and South America. The cooperation with Adperio will significantly increase our revenue and will serve as a solid base for substantial growth in the U.S. market.
