Hernandez Will Continue Brand Partnership Role and Spearhead the Expansion of Mirriad’s Multicultural Content Marketplace

Mirriad, the leading in-content advertising company and 2022 AdExchanger Winner for Most Innovative TV Advertising Technology Award, today announced that Maria Teresa Hernandez is the Head of Multicultural Marketplace & SVP Brand Partnerships. In her role, Hernandez will have a dual focus, creating virtually inserted advertising campaigns in TV, Streaming, Digital, and Music content for the world’s top brands while expanding the company’s multicultural in-content marketplace consisting of leading content producers.

“Mirriad’s in-content multicultural marketplace not only gives advertisers unique access into Black, Hispanic, and Asian-American and Pacific Islander (AAPI)-owned and led media but empowers the diverse media community through dollars direct to them. We still have a long way to go in bridging the longstanding media gaps in our industry, but I’m thrilled to be able to lead our in-content marketplace to combat racial inequality and advance equity and inclusivity within our industry,” said Maria Teresa Hernandez, Head of Multicultural Marketplace & SVP, Brand Partnerships.
