PRINCETON, NJ (December 8, 2021) – In keeping with its 20-year history of leading the industry, global addressable advertising solutions company INVIDI Technologies announced a new C-Suite structure to reflect its increased emphasis on guidance and development roles with clients.

Howard will oversee the product line management, operations, deployment management, technical support and services, IT, and facilities. He has been with INVIDI for more than 13 years.
• Niru Krishna becomes the highest-ranking female officer in INVIDI history with her promotion to Chief Innovation Officer, a rarity in the connected TV industry. Her vision has been instrumental in driving INVIDI’s growth to a best-in-class software organization over the last two decades, managing a diverse and talented team worldwide. She continues to pioneer the adoption of critical technologies helping INVIDI outperform the competition in the face of shifting market demands.
