We have expanded quickly since then and we are now live in over 25 countries, across multiple languages and timezones. The US is currently the biggest programmatic DOOH market globally, and it needs full time focus from someone who knows it inside out. Hector is a great hire for us, he is brilliantly knowledgeable and connected in our space, and I can’t wait to work in partnership with him to continue our growth plans across the world.”
On his new role as CRO, US & LatAm at Hivestack, Hector Gonzalez commented, “Hivestack is leading the charge globally for programmatic DOOH and adtech innovation across the industry.

It truly is an honor to get the opportunity to work with such a brilliant team and excited to be back fully immersed within my favorite medium that continues to show amazing growth.”
