In 2017, PlaceIQ continued to provide customers location-based marketing and business innovation in areas including media strategy, audience insights, analytics, campaign measurement and more. Leaders including Urban Outfitters, Zotos Professional, Shinola, Media Kitchen, Ansible, Havas, MullenLowe Mediahub, and Media Horizons were among several highlights of customers partnering with PlaceIQ for business success.

PlaceIQ's robust partner ecosystem continued to expand, vastly extending the accessibility and feature set of its premier location data. In 2017 PlaceIQ advanced noteworthy partner relationships with leaders such as IRI, Braze (formerly AppBoy), Marketing Evolution and 1010data, in a series of deals that gave greater access of its data to hundreds of leading brands and media agencies. PlaceIQ also teamed with comScore for the release of a new joint product, PlaceIQ PVR powered by comScore, which provided a solution for accurately measuring lift in real-world visitation resulting from TV, mobile and desktop advertising. 

Industry validation of PlaceIQ as a leader in location-aware technology continued as well. Highlights included:

These awards were rounded out by an accolade from Crain's New York Business, which named PlaceIQ one of New York's 100 Best Places to Work. 2017 was the company's fourth consecutive year on the list, earning the number 20 rank.

In 2017, PlaceIQ advanced its position as an industry thought leader with an independent research study, "State of Integrated Marketing," which examined the role of location data in aiding marketers' larger omnichannel strategies. This topic was one of many featured by PlaceIQ onstage at noteworthy tradeshows in 2017 including the Mobile Marketing Association's CEO & CMO Summit, The Modern Marketing Summit, AdExchanger Programmatic I/O, and many others.

"Customers, partners and industry experts continue to validate our mission of delivering location-aware insights that drive businesses forward," said Duncan McCall, CEO and co-founder at PlaceIQ. "2017 was a banner year for the data business we've invested in for more than seven years. Strong demand has been fueled by the versatility and sophistication of our dataset to help inform business decisions, whether those decisions are related to advertising, strategy, understanding or engaging with customers in any channel. The proliferation of our data to other platforms and large number of integrations has made it easier than ever to tap into our award-winning offerings as well. We look forward to fueling continued success for our customers via data innovation in 2018."
