Mark McKee was recently appointed general manager of FreeWheel, a Comcast-owned technology platform connecting buyers and sellers. In his new position, McKee, who was most recently the company’s chief revenue officer, will ensure that buyers and sellers can seamlessly transact across all screens using the company’s technology, data enablement and convergent marketplaces. As a member of Blockgraph’s board of directors, McKee will offer a unique perspective based on more than two decades of experience with innovative ad technologies and marketplace platforms.

“Blockgraph demonstrates what’s possible when innovators in our industry develop forward-thinking collaborative technologies,” said David Kline, chairman of the board at Blockgraph. “I’m honored to have the opportunity to play a leading role in Blockgraph’s important work and continued growth. In the coming year, we will look to gain even more momentum to safely enable industry measurement, addressability, and programmatic tools across a fully privacy-compliant household identity platform.”

“I’m excited to be joining industry leaders on the board of Blockgraph. This is a pivotal moment for the industry and Blockgraph’s technology platform and approach to identity and collaboration are well poised to help the marketplace solve for the fragmentation of TV audiences in the connected home,” said FreeWheel General Manager Mark McKee of his new Blockgraph board appointment. “I’m looking forward to teaming up with Jason and the Blockgraph team to accelerate the adoption of Blockgraph’s industry-leading, privacy-first, identity operating system across all stakeholder groups in the premium video and connected TV ecosystem.”
