Our take
eyeo is a leading ad-filtering technology developer that powers some of the largest ad blockers on the market, including AdBlock and AdBlock Plus. The company also offers privacy solutions through Crumbs and Acceptable Ads. All-in-all, it empowers users, browsers, advertisers and publishers to prosper in a fairer and more sustainable online ecosystem.
The company has made several strategic acquisitions, including Flattr and Blockthrough (enabling eyeo to analyse why users filter the ads they do), and has made a range of advantageous partnerships with companies throughout the publishing, advertising, and distribution industries. It now has a new leadership team in place and is working to build the largest cybersecurity company through a new firewall system, already with more than a billion people under its protection.
With its new direction in the firewall space, eyeo continues to build up its team and has shifted some of its focus as part of a "re-founding" strategy. With its leading position in the ad-blocking market and its strong growth strategy in other areas of cybersecurity, eyeo is well-placed to see continued global expansion.
