“Piano’s proven track record to elevate audience experiences for publishers, globally, made joining the company an easy and exciting choice. As brands equally focus on driving demand via owned content, subscriptions, and zero-party data, the opportunity for the next phase of Piano expansion is clear, and I am excited to join such a talented team to realize that vision,” adds Catalano.

Catalano’s recruitment is a product of the rapid growth Piano has experienced. In the past 18 months, Piano’s global business has increased over 300%, forging relationships with hundreds of publishers such as TechCrunch, Business Insider, The Daily Memphian, Funke Mediengruppe, DER STANDARD, Mediahuis, and many more.
