SUNNYVALE, Calif., May 2, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Mimvi, Inc. (OTCQB: MIMV), the leading mobile search and recommendation technology company, is pleased to announce Jud Hogan has joined the company's business development team.
Over the past 20 years, Hogan, 43, has worked at such companies as Ticketmaster, Disney, Yahoo!, Fox Audience Network, and most recently, OpenX, where he served as Senior Director of Mobile Demand for the Pasadena, California-based digital advertising technology and services company, which ranked 7th on Forbes Magazine's Top 25 list of America's most promising companies.
