Adspace, which owns and operates Adspace Networks has officially announced what we teased last week, namely the appointment of Greg Glenday as Chief Executive Officer.

Greg Glenday who is described as a seasoned executive with experience across a wide variety of media platforms, will oversee the day-to-day leadership of the company.

Peter Krieger, President and Chief Operating Officer from Adspace told us “We are thrilled to have someone of Greg’s success and stature join our company.
