MGID Acquires Italy’s Metup Native S.r.l.
MGID, the global advertising platform, today announces it has acquired a majority stake in Metup Native S.r.l., a leading native advertising network in Italy previously owned by MetUp. This deal marks the latest step in MGID’s global expansion plans.
MGID entered the Italian market by partnering with Metup in 2019. Leveraging the technology, data, and expertise of Metup has enabled MGID to enhance its native offering for advertisers and publishers in Italy. So far, the collaboration has enabled MGID to grow reach in the region to over half (55%) of Italy’s digital audience, through partnerships with premium publishers such as liberoquotidiano.it, ilfattoquotidiano.it, ilfoglio.it, iltempo.it, and gds.it.
MGID’s CEO, Sergii Denysenko, commented: “This is our first acquisition, but definitely not our last. We are in constant search of the leading adtech companies that can complement our product offering in local markets. Our purchase of Metup Native was an easy decision to make as not only does the company share the same values as MGID, but their market knowledge – and presence – is hugely impressive. We are looking forward to continuing our work in the Italian market and further developing our client partnerships.”
Shahram Bahadori, CEO of Metup Native S.r.l., said: “Joining MGID is a big milestone for Metup. We look forward to enhancing MGID’s current standing in Italy through our expert team, market knowledge and differentiated product offering, to deliver an unrivaled service for our publisher and advertiser partners.”

Through this collaboration with Visa, a world leader in digital payments, TreviPay’s order-to-cash automation technology combines with Visa’s commercial payment capabilities to help issuers move fragmented B2B spend into strategic, issuer-financed, invoice-based transactions. A Murphy Research study, found 26% of corporate payments are still made with checks or rely on manual legacy ACH processes. The study also shows 78% of global B2B buyers need customization or control in their payments and invoicing workflows, with 61% preferring to pay on net terms. Pay by Invoice helps banks meet these expectations by providing suppliers with early payment (generally within two days of invoicing) while enabling buyers to settle on negotiated terms such as 30, 60, or 90 days.

Agendia, Inc., a leader in precision oncology for breast cancer, today announced that the updated NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology1 (NCCN Guidelines®) now recognize that MammaPrint® + BluePrint® can help identify a subset of hormone receptor positive, HER2-negative (HR+/HER2–) early-stage breast cancer (EBC) patients most likely to benefit from anthracycline-based chemotherapy. “I am delighted that oncologists finally have a way to identify HR+/HER2- early breast cancer patients who will benefit from anthracycline therapy," said Joyce A.
