Digital Media Pioneer

Homer was working in digital media before social media and growth hacking became mainstream business disciplines. His early career included roles such as Advertising Director at Worldroom.com and Head of Marketing at ClickTheCity.com.

He later held senior global commercial positions at Friendster and Multiply, helping develop advertising, partnerships, sponsorships, revenue streams, and commercial opportunities across international markets. At Friendster/MOL-Global, he progressed from regional commercial responsibilities to a global leadership role in commercial partnerships and advertising operations. At Multiply, he headed global strategic and commercial partnerships and advertising operations.

This gives Homer an unusual perspective: he has experienced the Internet economy from its early platform era through social media, mobile, e-commerce, content marketing, and today's AI-driven search environment.
