Lemma, an independent SSP platform for Digital Out of Home (DOOH), announced the expansion of their team in Australia with the hire of Wasiq Kidwai as Director of Sales and Business development.
He joins Lemma with the brief to bring in a shift of digital spends towards programmatic digital out-of-the-home as part of the mainstream ecosystem.

Wasiq Kidwai, Director of Sales & Business Development, Australia, “Lemma is uniquely positioned to guide and accelerate the pDOOH agenda in the region whilst their expansion plans align with the larger goal of connecting mainstream to the Digital OOH. At the same time, I am excited about this medium, especially at the pace at which it’s evolving. I am sure DOOH is the future of advertising.”
Gulab Patil, Founder & CEO of Lemma, said, “As Lemma expands its presence in various markets, we need the strongest Digital and inventive minds to help us pave the way and make our vision of transforming DOOH mainstream digital a reality.
