In-game ad firm Double Fusion elevated board member and spokesperson Jonathan Epstein to CEO. It’s a role he already performed in everything but name. Epstein spent 10 years at IDG, filling various sales and publishing management roles, after which he launched GameSpot.com. He was most recently co-head of United Talent Agency’s digital media practice.
Think Partnership’s CEO, Gerard Jacobs, as well as its chairman, Benjamin Jennings, have tendered their resignations. The reason stated was that the company will for the rest of the year focus on “capturing integration synergies,” whereas the two men’s individual strengths are in growth and acquisitions. Scott Mitchell will continue to serve as president.
