Read previewPublic data company LiveRamp has agreed to acquire five-year-old startup Habu in a cash and stock deal valued at $200 million.
LiveRamp CEO Scott Howe said the deal will help LiveRamp scale and grow partnerships with the cloud companies and platforms that Habu works with — like Google, Meta, and Disney.
Habu will help LiveRamp expand its base of small and midsize clients.
Habu's capabilities extend beyond marketing, and its clients use its technology to support applications around supply-chain data, healthcare data, and financial services data.
Howe said these use cases could help LiveRamp expand its business beyond marketing to help companies manage data more broadly.
