Appointing industry innovator Joseph Jordan as new senior vice president of supply, Cint recently arrived in downtown Chicago’s River North district to launch its sixth U.S. office and meet escalating demand for first-party consumer data and insights.

Jordan’s appointment parallels the company’s ongoing growth, with Cint recently reaching the 40 million mark in consumer contacts. Remarkably, this is more than double its figures from six months ago.

“On behalf of our publisher network, the Cint Insights Exchange created more than 100 million self-declared profiling points last year,” Cint’s executive vice president of the Americas Jake Wolff. “This depth of audience knowledge can transform a publisher’s business. We are thrilled Joe will be the person bringing this power to the market in Chicago and the U.S.”

Jordan previously worked at Survey Sampling International (SSI) and brings over two decades of expertise in research technology, marketing and revenue strategy. The new Chicago office plans a grand opening in the near future.

“We have a booming business in the Midwest and the beginnings of big movements in Canada,” Wolff said. “This office will allow us to service those clients with a local touch.”

Cint develops global technology focusing on API and SaaS platforms “to innovate the way insights are gathered,” with world headquarters in Stockholm and offices throughout Europe and in the U.S.
