San Mateo, California, USA – WEBWIRE

Drawbridge, the leading anonymized digital identity company, announced that revenue reached an annualized run-rate of $100M in Q4 of 2015. The company achieved this milestone by evolving its core offerings to meet the needs of enterprise clients, including a focus on delivering a cross-device SaaS platform and data-licensing solutions, which now account for more than 50% of total revenue. The growth of the business amid this product evolution speaks to the strength of the business model, as well as the need for identity-based solutions in market, which can be leveraged for content optimization, site personalization, risk and fraud detection, attribution, marketing automation, and other applications beyond programmatic advertising.
 
“The market opportunity for an accurate and scalable digital identity solution is tremendous, with consumer experiences across the entire internet facing opportunities to be enhanced and personalized,” said Drawbridge Founder & CEO Kamakshi Sivaramakrishnan. “Our expansion in the last 12-18 months into the enterprise market has been an exciting journey, and 2016 is on track to be another great year as we continue to extoll the value and utility of anonymized digital identity.”
 
“Kamakshi and the Drawbridge team have executed incredibly well. This is one of the most capital efficient companies I’ve seen to eclipse the $100M run rate,” said Menlo Ventures Managing Director and Drawbridge Board Member Matt Murphy. “The opportunity ahead is enormous especially with their move into the enterprise market. Digital identity has become an important topic in the greater technology landscape, and Drawbridge has highly differentiated technology to deliver the market leading solution.”
 
Drawbridge was listed as the fastest-growing company in the advertising and marketing space on the 2015 Inc. 5000 list, and the sixth-fastest-growing overall.
