About Silverbullet

Silverbullet's proprietary 4D advertising solution is designed to help advertisers target consumers in a "post cookie world". The product is a natural extension to its existing services business which already serves a blue-chip client base such as Heineken, Channel 4, Amazon, ITV and Jägermeister amongst many others.

The removal of cookies has already been implemented by web browsers such as Firefox and Safari, but the real change will come when Google (which is by far the world's largest search engine ex-China) will phase out the use of cookies in 2022. Silverbullet operates in the global digital advertising market, which is expected to reach $526 billion by 2024.

Headquartered in London, the Group employs 62 employees across five regions across the globe, including, the UK, Italy, Germany, Australia and the US. The Group continues to look at other opportunities for expansion worldwide.

The Company has an established and growing services business with significant accumulated industry experience and a proven track record of delivering strategic projects and activation services to its clients.

The majority of the Board have held senior positions at global software companies and have significant industry experience across data engineering, SAAS product development and marketing.
