  • Best Wishes for the Winter Season from ividence
  • To celebrate the approaching end of a year of rapid growth, the U.S. ividence team gathered its East and West Coast offices in San Francisco for a day of cooking, ice skating and team building.

    First, the team went to Hands On Gourmet, where they worked together to create (and eat!) a three-course French meal, including Smoked Salmon with Buckwheat Blinis, Poulet Rôti (Roasted Chicken), and Chocolate Soufflé. Then, off to ice skate at the outdoor rink at Embarcadero Center for the afternoon.

  • ividence Wins Red Herring Global 100 Award
  • December 9, 2011 San Francisco, CA – Red Herring announced Wednesday that ividence was among the Global 100 Award winners. The award recognizes innovations from private companies in North America, Europe, and Asia.

    ividence, the first standalone acquisition email ad exchange, uses behavioral targeting technology to match email offers to the best records, so that list owners can “send less and earn more,” monetizing their lists with integrity, and advertisers can see better results and ROI.

    Red Herring editors were among the first to recognize the disruptive potential of companies like Google, Skype, Baidu, Salesforce.com, YouTube, and eBay, making the Red Herring Global 100 list a mark of distinction worldwide.

    “Choosing the best out of the previous two years was by no means a small feat,” said Alex Vieux, Chairman of Red Herring. “After rigorous contemplation and discussion, we narrowed down our list from 1,100 potential companies to 100 winners. It was an extremely difficult process. ividence should be extremely proud of its achievement, the competition for the Top 100 was fierce. The Top 100 Global are truly the best of the best.”

    Red Herring’s editorial staff evaluates companies on criteria like financial performance, technology innovation, management quality, strategy, and market penetration. This assessment of potential is complemented by a review of the track record and standing of startups relative to their sector peers. Red Herring sees past the “buzz,” making the list invaluable for discovery of the greatest business opportunities around the world.

    “ividence is honored to have won Red Herring’s Global 100 award and to be among such exciting and innovative companies around the world,” said CEO and co-founder Eric Didier.

  • Red Herring Top100 Europe Tech Startup Winner



  • ividence selected as Red Herring Top 100 Europe Tech Startup Winner



    May 27, 2011 - ividence is pleased to announce their selection as a Red Herring TOP 100 Technology Start-up Winner in Europe for 2011.


    Red Herring’s Top 100 Europe list has become a mark of distinction for identifying promising new companies and entrepreneurs. Red Herring editors were among the first to recognize that companies such as Facebook, Twitter, Google, Yahoo, Skype, Salesforce.com, YouTube, and eBay would change the way we live and work.


    “Choosing the companies with the strongest potential was by no means a small feat,” said Alex Vieux, publisher and CEO of Red Herring. “After rigorous contemplation and discussion, we narrowed our list down from hundreds of candidates from across Europe to the Top 100 Winners. We believe ividence embodies the vision, drive and innovation that define a successful entrepreneurial venture. ividence should be proud of its accomplishment, as the competition was very strong.”


    Red Herring’s editorial staff evaluated the companies on both quantitative and qualitative criteria, such as financial performance, technology innovation, management quality, strategy, and market penetration. This assessment of potential is complemented by a review of the track record and standing of startups relative to their sector peers, allowing Red Herring to see past the “buzz” and make the list a valuable instrument of discovery and advocacy for the most promising new business models in Europe.


    Email campaign technology based on behavioral analysis


    ividence has developed the first Email AdXchange in Europe and the US – a SaaS platform that connects email lists with advertisers’ customer recruitment campaigns. Using its proprietary “Behavioral Email AdServer,” the platform helps generate traffic on advertisers’ sites using targeted email campaigns.


    ividence’s technology, which is based on innovative algorithms and results from more than 10 man-years of research, allows each campaign to automatically select email addresses whose behavioural characteristics indicate that they have the best affinities with the advertiser. Optimizing efficiency of an email campaign in this way means it achieves outstanding results but with two to three times less sent volume.


    For its publishing clients, ividence monetizes more than 10 million email addresses in France and in the US, manages more than 3,000 campaigns a month and generates thousands of leads for advertisers such as Cdiscount, Voyageprive, Groupon, Citroen, Idmacif, PCH, Match and Dish Network.
