CtrlShift

CtrlShift is a Singapore-headquartered advertising and digital marketing company.
It was founded in January 2015 from the merger of three advertising technology companies: scientific media buying platform AdzCentral founded by Reza Behnam; digital consultancy Better founded by Rene E. Menezes; and ad-tech distribution company Asia Digital Ventures founded by Pete Yoong. It is backed by venture capital firms Digital Media Partners, the Singapore National Research Foundation and CFF Partners.
In May 2015, CtrlShift was listed in Founders Grid’s top 50 thriving startups in Southeast Asia. It has offices in four Southeast Asian countries:Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and the Philippines. It launched operations in Australia in March 2019.
In August 2017, the company launched The Hub, its enterprise programmatic advertising software for unified media planning, activation and insights. It aggregates platforms (social, search, RTB, native) to streamline digital media management. The platform is currently integrated with many major advertising platforms, including MediaMath, AppNexus, Google's DV360, Facebook, Zemanta, TubeMogul and China's iPinYou.
The company divested its managed services unit The Studio in January 2019, with Taiwanese firm adGeek acquiring a majority stake in the business. The move was in line with the company’s focus on technology and expanding its software-as-a-service (SaaS) business with The Hub.
