MUMBAI:  Vdopia has announced the appointment of several top talents to further strengthen its leadership ranks: Jason Shulman, Farzad Jamal and Narayanan Iyer.

Farzad Jamal has come on-board as vice president, Europe. Jamal will be based in the company's London office and will be responsible for expanding Vdopia's business across Europe. Previously, he was at the OpenX (London) where he has been commercial director of EMEA for the past two years.

Jason Shulman has joined as senior vice president, sales at the company's San Francisco office. Shulman will be responsible for growing North America media and programmatic revenue for the company. "There are very few companies with global scale in the mobile video advertising space and Vdopia is on that short list.

Senior director of finance, a newly created position, will be occupied by Narayanan Iyer.  He will be based in Fremont and is responsible for company's finances. A veteran with 20 years of experience, he’s worked with Rocket Fuel, Mint and Intuit. Prior to Vdopia, he was working with Quri (San Francisco), a retail intelligence company.
