We are excited to announce that Kevel has been named one of the 21 hottest adtech companies of 2021 by Insider!

Insider (formerly Business Insider), a top global news brand with more than 250 million unique monthly visitors, releases this list annually to recognize outstanding companies solving adtech’s toughest problems.

Kevel is named alongside industry ad tech leaders like Roku, AppLovin, Vizio, The Trade Desk, and LiveRamp. When explaining Kevel’s selection, Insider said:

"2021 was the year that retailers, financial firms, and others tried to sell advertising on their online properties. And Kevel is one of the big companies powering these efforts."

Insider also highlighted Tushar Kirtane, Kevel’s VP of Product Management and Operations, as a rising industry star for his leadership in Kevel’s expansion.

We are thrilled to receive this award from Insider, and it’s an honor to be listed alongside so many other innovative players in the space. We believe it further validates our mission of wanting to help keep the Internet open and free, through tools that make it easy to monetize with privacy-first, user-friendly ads.
