Rubberduck Media Lab expands its operations in the US

Rubberduck Media Lab, a leading provider of mobile TV solutions, expands its operations on the North American market, establishing a southern California based headquarter in Carlsbad. Rubberduck is part of the stock listed Aspiro group, which is the Scandinavian market leader within mobile services.

Rubberduck already serves North American customers such as Fox Mobile Entertainment, MTV Networks and Thumbplay. Rubberduck Media Lab is establishing a presence in North America to both better serve its existing client base in North America as well as expand its North American footprint.

Paul Childers has been named president of the North American operations. His experience includes managing and selling digital media internationally, for companies such as Entriq, Chello Broadband and internet division of UGC (now Liberty Global).

– We are very happy to establish a local presence in the US and that Paul will lead our American operations. Paul brings a deep understanding of the digital media industry and will be an asset to our existing and new customers, who wants to distribute their digital content via the mobile channel, says Ola Svartberg, CEO of Rubberduck Media Lab AS.

– The opportunity to join Rubberduck, a company that has established itself as a leader in the highly evolved and competitive European mobile video marketplace is unique and exiting. In North America, Rubberduck already has some large clients and we have seen how the interest in their services has grown. Traffic from existing customers in the US increased by more than 80 percent during the last quarter and now we are able to serve them more effectively through a local presence, says Paul Childers, CEO of Rubberduck Media Lab Inc.
