Quotes:
“I believe that most of the big players have clear interest in pushing some of the third-party providers out of the market, especially when it comes to data and ad-tech. You can already see Facebook and Google want you to do all through them directly so that way they can collect more insights into your apps’ performance.”
“So we had to learn to implement one of our team as a project manager. We had to learn to prioritize all the tasks accordingly and not overwhelm him with work and try to do too many things at the same time. So, you learn as you go.”
