Strategic partnership with ad pepper media extends Pixsy’s distribution into European markets

San Francisco, CA — April 25, 2007.  Pixsy Corporation, an award-winning media search platform that powers private label image and video search engines, today announced entry into European markets through a strategic partnership with ad pepper, one of Europe’s leading advertising networks.  Under this agreement ad pepper will use Pixsy’s technology solutions to create private-label, customized image and video search portals that will include relevant media content along with contextualized, performance based advertising.
 
“This is a long desired partnership. Using Pixsy’s customized media search solutions we can offer fresh online photo and video content to new and existing publishers worldwide; creating original, highly targeted vehicles for monetization,” said Ulrich Schmidt, chairman and CEO of ad pepper media.

Pixsy’s Media Search Platform will enable consumers to search for multimedia content based on a variety of popular categories, including news, sports, entertainment, celebrities, travel and more.  Later this year, these targeted portals will integrate with ad pepper’s iSense online ad network, which will enable national and international advertisers to offer content-targeted messages on a pay-for-performance basis.  Pixsy will use its proprietary technology to capture, index and deliver the most current and relevant thumbnail images and video.  iSense offers advertisers the opportunity to target their display ads based upon a choice of category and level of reach. 

“ad pepper is the premiere ad network in Europe and we’re thrilled to announce our International presence with such a strong partner,” said Chase Norlin, Pixsy CEO.  “In the last few months we’ve announced deals with several of the major U.S. ad networks and this is a bold move for Pixsy as we build out our extensive distribution network worldwide.” 

ad pepper media will be exhibiting at Ad:Tech SF on April 24-26, 2007 in Booth #5652.
