-Improves the Lives of Marketers and Increases Business Outcomes by Addressing Advertising Complexity

Centro, Inc., a leading provider of cloud-based workflow automation and business intelligence software for marketing and advertising, today announced it has changed its corporate name to Basis Global Technologies, Inc. .Celebrating its 20^th corporate anniversary, the Company is rebranding to position its core technology as a focal point of its automation and intelligence vision for enterprises. The Company’s vision is to develop the marketing industry’s most comprehensive, automated, and intelligent SaaS platform. Its Basis platform is composed of integrated applications that automate manual operations, standardize business processes, and improve marketing and advertising performance.

Marketing operations have become too complex for media professionals and marketing team leaders because of new channels, ad formats, reporting metrics, and more. This expansion is straining marketers, leading to higher labor costs, deteriorating unit economics, decreasing customer service quality, lower efficacy of paid ads, and declining profitability. The marketing industry continues to utilize disparate, legacy point solutions that are disconnected from the core elements of media workflow. Basis Technologies’ mission since the beginning of the Company’s incorporation in October 2001 is to improve the lives of marketers and increase business outcomes through automation.
