Adaptive streaming tech firm SeenThis expands into Japan

Adaptive streaming technology company SeenThis has expanded into Japan with the opening of an office in Tokyo. With the move, SeenThis is expanding its presence in Asia, following the launch of several successful campaigns in Japan.

Access to SeenThis’ adaptive streaming technology will open the door to advertisers in the region to run more effective video-based campaigns, according to the release.

Historically, display advertising in Japan has been dominated by static, image-based banner ads. With SeenThis’ entrance, the market will experience a game-changing alternative with its innovative video solution.

Leading the team on the ground will be Setsuko Iijima. Iijima comes with a wide range of experiences, most recently at Outbrain, where she was head of mid-market sales.

“After the opening of our offices in Singapore and Hong Kong, the opening of our Tokyo office is another sign of our commitment to helping advertisers run high-impact, more sustainable campaigns in the APAC region,” said Jesper Benon (pictured), CEO SeenThis. “Iijima and her team are keen to help advertisers in Japan move beyond static image-based content to more immersive and engaging video campaigns.”

Iijima said: “There’s a big opportunity for advertisers in Japan to up their game with SeenThis at the heart of it. We’re already having some great conversations and look forward to working with some of the country’s major advertisers.”

Established in 2017, SeenThis has been evolving screen experiences. With its adaptive streaming technology, SeenThis is transforming the distribution and climate impact of digital content compared to traditional technology.

With billions of streams served for 5000+ brands in 50+ countries, the company is on a journey to reshape the internet. Working across seven offices globally, SeenThis employees are tasked with creating a truly high-speed and energy-efficient Internet.
