Fremont, CA: Social networking and instant messaging company Yabb announced the acquisition of Fango, a leading influencer marketing platform based in San Francisco with more than 40,000 member influencers and a social media reach of over 1.28 billion. Fango uses the power of artificial intelligence and machine learning tools to suggest which creators to collaborate with, identify audiences, track content and results.
"Yabb sets itself apart from other social networks as an ad-free platform," said Kenneth Ting, Yabb’s CEO. "Gokhan Celiker and his team have built a vibrant influencer community and developed a cutting-edge platform. Gokhan is a true visionary and built Fango at a time when very few people understood the power of social influencers. This acquisition will give us a tremendous head start.”
