Mediaocean has appointed Guy Kuperman as Chief Strategy Officer to accelerate its AI-driven advertising strategy. The move highlights Mediaocean’s focus on growth in an AI-first ecosystem. Kuperman will oversee corporate strategy, business intelligence, and strategic partnerships across Mediaocean’s portfolio. Moreover, he will report directly to CEO Bill Wise. Previously, Kuperman served as Chief Strategy Officer at Innovid.
This appointment comes as AI rapidly transforms the global advertising landscape. As a result, marketers face increasing pressure to simplify fragmented technology systems. At the same time, they must improve media performance and efficiency. Therefore, demand continues to grow for enterprise-grade infrastructure. Such systems must balance AI innovation with governance, interoperability, and control. Mediaocean is strengthening its position as an independent platform that supports the full advertising workflow. This includes planning, buying, finance, creative, delivery, measurement, optimization, and verification.
Mediaocean Expands AI Strategy and Partnerships
Kuperman will drive key growth initiatives while strengthening strategic alliances. In addition, he will help expand Mediaocean’s global footprint and improve media investment outcomes. Mediaocean’s platforms, including Innovid, Prisma, and Protected, connect brands, agencies, publishers, and data providers within a unified system.
Furthermore, his role will focus on scaling partnerships while maintaining neutrality and interoperability. This approach ensures alignment with client objectives across the ecosystem. Consequently, Mediaocean aims to remain a central platform for navigating modern advertising challenges.
“Our industry doesn’t need more point solutions; it needs cohesion,” said Bill Wise, CEO, Mediaocean. “We’ve spent the last decade assembling an independent, interoperable platform that reduces friction and helps advertising operate more efficiently. Guy understands and drives both our strategic architecture and the ecosystem. Expanding his role ensures that our strategy, partnerships, and corporate development efforts stay tightly aligned and executed as we enter our next phase of growth centered around AI.”
In addition, Kuperman will oversee strategic partnerships with major platforms, streaming publishers, and emerging AI innovators. He will also guide integration efforts across Mediaocean’s expanding business units. Following the Innovid and Flashtalking merger, Mediaocean continues to integrate its broader portfolio. This includes alignment with Prisma and Protected solutions. As a result, customers will benefit from unified data, workflow, and AI capabilities.
“The market is evolving at a pace we’ve never seen before, and Mediaocean is uniquely positioned to steer this change,” said Kuperman. “Together with phenomenal partners and clients, we are architecting the advertising market’s path forward. My focus will be on ensuring our strategy becomes a tangible operational engine that delivers unparalleled value to our global partners as they navigate a complex, AI-first future, and I am thrilled to take this expanded role.”
