According to PulseAd, CCO Johnny Won has over 20 years of experience in adtech, AI, and commerce media, and he led award-winning projects in the 'Adweek Media Plan of the Year' category for two consecutive years, as recognized by the U.S. advertising industry publication Adweek.


He remarked, "Retail media is the market where AI-driven operational innovation is happening fastest due to the fragmentation of platforms like Amazon, Meta, and TikTok Shop. Based on my experience in the U.S. market, I aim to drive change in the global market together with Seoul's outstanding AI talent."


Yoon Geoseong, CEO of PulseAd, emphasized, "CCO Johnny Won's commercial leadership and experience in the North American market will play a pivotal role as PulseAd moves beyond simple advertising automation to create a new category as an 'AI-native commerce operating system.'"



Meanwhile, now in its second year since establishment, PulseAd is accelerating its global expansion through its next-generation operating layer product 'Pulson,' which incorporates agentic AI technology. The company recently signed an annual contract worth several million dollars with the global beauty company KISS Beauty Group, and improved major campaign performance by over 50% within just one month of platform implementation.
