LONDON, UK, SEPTEMBER 10, 2024 - Index Exchange Inc. (Index), the global advertising supply side platform, today announced the appointment of John Tigg as Senior Vice President, Buyer Development, Europe.
In this newly developed role, Tigg will be responsible for driving growth for marketers across Europe, with a focus on understanding buyer needs and aligning them with Index’s suite of products and services.

Tigg joins Index from Yieldmo where as EVP, global buyer development, he was responsible for publisher and agency and advertiser revenue. Prior to that, he held leadership roles at Cadent.tv, Yahoo!, and Videology, which was acquired by Amobee in 2018.
“With over 20 years of industry experience, Index is well placed to help customers and partners navigate the ever-evolving digital advertising ecosystem,” said Tigg. “The business is committed to building world-class technology as well as developing market-leading standards, making it a necessary partner for marketers and media owners. Their strong stance on made-for-advertising (MFA) sites is testament to their clear vision for the future and I look forward to working with this dedicated team to make this future our customers’ reality.”
