"Tore has great experience across our key vertical markets – including higher education – and we're looking forward to him using his experience to widen our reach, and bring our Mobile Direct Response solutions to the growing number of organizations which want to put in place a highly successful and measurable mobile marketing strategy, whichever market they happen to be in." said Simon Wajcenberg, CEO of Clash Media Mobile.
