Moloco Listed in the Top 10 of Fastest-Growing Advertising & Marketing and San Francisco-Based Companies

Inc. revealed that Moloco placed 95th on its annual Inc. 5000 list, the most prestigious ranking of the fastest-growing private companies in America. The list represents a one-of-a-kind look at the most successful companies within the economy’s most dynamic segment—its independent businesses. Moloco joins the ranks of the world’s most growth-minded companies, including Facebook, Dave, Credit Karma, Scopely, and Skillz, who have been listed on the Inc. 5000 in previous years. In addition to its overall Inc. 5000 listing, Moloco ranked 9th among all advertising and marketing companies, 15th among all California companies, and 5th among all San Francisco metro companies.

“Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that have established themselves through innovation, hard work, and rising to the challenges of today.”

“Today’s mobile app developers are tasked with supercharging growth by finding their highest-value customers across the open internet. But performance marketing has never been so complex or important, as protecting user privacy has become the responsibility of every digital platform. That’s where Moloco comes in,” said Ikkjin Ahn, co-founder and CEO of Moloco. “The world’s smartest performance marketers rely on Moloco’s machine learning engine to drive user acquisition and retention at a speed and scale previously only seen within the so-called walled gardens of Google, Facebook, and Amazon. Our solutions unlock the power of every advertiser’s own, unique first-party data, creating a more equitable and profitable digital economy for all.”

As the world has moved toward mobile, advertisers now require their campaigns to be not only programmatic, but also truly performant. Moloco’s rapid growth can be attributed to its advanced machine learning engine, powered by deep neural networks previously unavailable beyond the walled gardens. With Moloco Cloud DSP, performance marketing teams achieve faster return on ad spend, driven by machine-scale automation built to protect advertisers against privacy and regulatory risk and quickly adapt to data availability changes.

The company recently expanded its executive team, with key hires from Disney, Google, Momentive, and RBC Capital Markets. Moloco also expanded its machine learning platform to new product categories, including Moloco Retail Media Platform for e-commerce marketplaces. The company also raised $150 million in Series C funding in 2021 at a $1.5 billion valuation by demonstrating not only the exceptional 4,455 percent three-year growth recognized by the Inc. 5000, but also 9 consecutive quarters of profitability, an achievement with few precedents among technology businesses.

The companies on the 2022 Inc. 5000 have not only been successful, but have also demonstrated resilience amid supply chain woes, labor shortages, and the ongoing impact of Covid-19. Among the top 500, the average median three-year revenue growth rate soared to 2,144 percent.

“The accomplishment of building one of the fastest-growing companies in the US, in light of recent economic roadblocks, cannot be overstated,” says Scott Omelianuk, editor-in-chief of Inc. “Inc. is thrilled to honor the companies that have established themselves through innovation, hard work, and rising to the challenges of today.”
