About Limelight Inc Founded in London in 2018, Limelight Inc. was created as an answer to the complexity and inefficiency of the ad tech world. The industry, while tech accelerated lacked clarity and experienced human oversight, leaving professionals ill-equipped and frustrated in a maze of complex tools and processes. David Nelson and James Macdonald, co-founders of the company and pioneers in the media world, realized that the true power of programmatic advertising wasn’t just the technology, but also pairing it with real human expertise.
