Growth Momentum Headed into 2022

Tinuiti has experienced rapid expansion, growing seven times in size since 2017. The firm has consistently been on the forefront of emerging spaces years ahead of the competition—whether the Amazon and Retail Media space, a respected industry thought leader on data privacy, or breaking out ahead on streaming advertising.

In late 2020, Tinuiti partnered with New Mountain Capital, a leading growth-oriented investment firm, and announced an all-star board of directors including Kevin Mayer, formerly of Disney and TikTok, Anneka Gupta, former President of LiveRamp, and George Gallate, former Global Chairman and CEO of Havas Digital.

In 2021, Tinuiti completed two major acquisitions: Amazon-specialist agency, Ortega Group, creating the industry’s most robust full-service Amazon and marketplace program, and Bliss Point Media, a leader of digital streaming that expanded Tinuiti’s full-service capabilities in streaming and linear TV and made it the largest independent purchaser of streaming/OTT media in America.

In 2021, Tinuiti launched its first-ever brand campaign, called “Rethink. Performance.” The provocative omnichannel approach challenged CMOs to shift their perspectives around some of the industry’s most hot-button issues, from data privacy to navigating the walled gardens.
