LiquidM today announced the public availability of its white-labeled Mobile Advertising Management Platform (MAMP), which allows mobile media buyers to optimize their management processes across the full range of premium to performance advertising. To customers who care about returns, quality, and efficiency, LiquidM provides a business model-agnostic full stack to manage and optimize their mobile advertising campaigns. LiquidM's modular, cloud-based SaaS replaces Build-Your-Own (BYO) or inadequate point solutions of ad tech infrastructure with a standardized, open platform that is customizable to individual needs. Additionally, the company is also announcing a $5M series A funding from Blumberg Capital, Earlybird, and Asset Management to fuel the growth and marketing of the product.

'As the mobile advertising industry is moving through the trough of disillusionment, more and more mobile advertising companies are looking to increase their competitiveness by turning to a full stack ad tech provider,' said Christof Wittig, CEO of LiquidM. 'While some in the market still believe that scale and more sales people will solve their problems, a new generation of companies is now looking into broad, integrated technology support to exploit the promise of this massive opportunity. Based on the success with customers like Madvertise and Mobilike, we have now raised funds to make our offer successively available to more and more customers.'

According to estimates from an August eMarketer report, mobile advertising is a $16.7B market, representing a mere 14% of the total $117.6B digital ad spend. Despite the indisputable market opportunity, mobile media buyers struggle to manage larger campaigns efficiently given the variety of players and the tension between quality and performance requirements. As smart phones and tablets take up more and more audience time, ad spend will further shift into mobile. LiquidM is poised to deliver and capture value in this fast growing market with its unique whitelabeled product offering

'With LiquidM, Mobilike jumped from sixth to first in the fast-growing Turkish mobile advertising market within 18 months,' said Şekip Can Gökalp, Managing Director of Mobilike and a winner of this year's IAB MIXX Awards. 'Thanks to its unique combination of delivering quality and performance in one platform, we were able to build the leading premium offer in the Turkish market while turbocharging our growth with reach extension through real-time bidding, targeting, rich media formats and the ability to work closely with mobile operators.'

'Madvertise is using the LiquidM platform to deliver value to its customers and outgrow the competition to become No. 1 in the German market,' says Bjoern Wendler, Managing Director of Madvertise Media. 'By using a SaaS platform we can bring new products to market faster and hobble our competitors, who find it difficult to adapt to the demand for real-time bidding, rich media, third party tracking or transparent reporting, while we get all those innovations delivered automatically.'
