Criteo has announced two strategic management changes for the MEA region. Michele Iozzo has been appointed Managing Director for Middle East & Africa, while Alexander Gösswein will take over the new role of Managing Director for the DACH region (Germany, Austria, Switzerland), Russia and Middle East & Africa. Michele and Alexander will continue to drive the company’s strategy to provide powerful Commerce Marketing solutions to Criteo’s clients in the MEA region.

Michele Iozzo, Managing Director Middle East & Africa, said: “The Middle East is witnessing a steady growth in e-Commerce and m-Commerce stimulated by demanding consumers who are increasingly turning to digital channels. With e-Commerce valued at US$10 billion in the UAE, and over US$6 billion in KSA in 2018, we need to embrace the opportunities presented in these markets and others across the Middle East.”

He added: “I am thrilled to take over this new role at such an exciting time for Criteo and the industry and drive our customer-centric commerce marketing solutions in the region to help our clients stay competitive and grow.” Alexander Gösswein, Managing Director DACH, Russia & MEA, added: “Our growing Commerce Marketing Ecosystem is set-up to empower clients to sell more and compete in a rapidly changing industry. The market conditions are changing globally and the Middle East is no exception. I am confident that Michele’s leadership skills, deep industry knowledge and digital experience will help our clients master the challenges of the disruptive commerce landscape in the region.”

Both Michele and Alexander have a strong track record within Criteo, having held senior positions in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. They have a broad digital and industry experience, having worked for companies such as Yahoo! before joining Criteo.
