Direct Digital Holdings Partners with FreeWheel’s Beeswax to Simplify and Expand Access to Multicultural and General Market CTV Ad Inventory

Today, Direct Digital Holdings, Inc. a leading advertising and marketing technology platform operating through its companies Colossus Media, LLC (“Colossus SSP”), Huddled Masses LLC (“Huddled Masses”) and Orange142, LLC (“Orange142”), announced that it has partnered with Beeswax, a FreeWheel-owned programmatic buying platform.

The ad tech group, which is the ninth Black-owned company on the NASDAQ U.S. stock exchange, will collaborate with Beeswax to expand access to, as well as simplify the path for, buying multicultural – alongside general market – connected TV ad inventory.

The integration works like this: Colossus SSP, a Direct Digital Holdings-owned supply-side platform, works with both multicultural and general market publishers, giving its users access to a more diverse range of CTV ad inventory. As such, marketers and agencies that use FreeWheel’s Beeswax to buy CTV ads can now reach a wider array of viewers.
