ClearTV appoints ad industry veteran Mark Papia as the Company’s Chief Revenue Officer
Hamilton, Bermuda: 28 May 2015 – In a filing with the Bermuda Stock Exchange (“BSX”), Clear TV Ltd., (the “Company”; Ticker: CTV.BH) announced the appointment of Mark Papia as the Company’s Chief Revenue Officer. The filing stated:
“Clear TV Ltd., a Bermuda company whose holdings include a US-based operator of television networks installed in select, high-value, away from home locations, is successfully expanding its sales department and hired ad industry veteran Mark Papia as the new Chief Revenue Officer of the company.
Papia, who is a 30-year veteran of the ad business, has held jobs at ABC and Fox, as well as Yahoo and MySpace. Most recently, Papia was head of North American Sales for AdParlor, the Facebook Marketing Platform Partner and Twitter Ads API Partner. According to Papia, social media will be an important part of ClearTV’s go-forward strategy, in addition to contextual and geographical targeted digital media.
“As multi-media becomes more central to the ClearTV mission, we are choosing to turn revenue generation over to someone who has extensive experience on both the traditional and digital sides of the advertising ecosystem,” says ClearTV CEO Henry Mauriss. “Mark’s skill set is perfectly suited for ClearTV’s needs during this growth phase in our life cycle.”
ClearTV manages the content and advertising displayed on video monitors in five airports around the U.S. Over the next two months three further airports (San Jose Mineta International (SJC), Reno/Tahoe International (RNO) and Denver International (DIA)) will be coming online.
“The growing portfolio of ClearTV airport assets, coupled with the on- and off-line ad targeting that can be done around the travel experience, will create unrivaled multi-media advertising opportunities for brand marketers and awesome consumer experiences for our viewing audiences,” says Mr. Papia.
