Sascha Weis

AnyClip, the leading AI-based video content data monetization platform, today announced the opening of new corporate headquarters near Tel Aviv, Israel, a new location to accommodate expansion in New York, and the appointment of former Branded Entertainment Network (BEN) executive Sascha Weis as Vice President of Sales, North America.

To support an expanding team, AnyClip has leased an entire floor in Hashachar Tower in Givatayim, Israel's third tallest building. Overlooking tech hub Tel Aviv, the custom-designed headquarters will help accommodate the growing software engineering, operations and management teams.

"Our recent exponential growth has been driven by the market's overwhelming response to our AI-driven video analysis and monetization solutions," said Gil Becker, President & CEO of AnyClip. "In order to stay ahead of demand and service premium publishers, leading broadcasters, and content owners, we decided to move our facilities into a significantly larger space."

In addition, AnyClip welcomes industry veteran Sascha Weis to its expanding team in New York, where he will be responsible for increasing the company's market share in North America. Prior to his role at Anyclip, Weis led the global sales organization of Branded Entertainment Network (BEN), connecting brands to their target audiences through integration into premium content. Prior to that, he held senior management roles at Corbis and gettyimages, both leading global content licensing agencies.

Weis started his career in Europe and managed teams in Germany and Austria before relocating to New York in early 2008. He graduated from the Business school of Dusseldorf in Germany with a Master of Science in Business Administration.

"Sascha is a proven leader across a variety of global businesses and brings AnyClip the ability to both strengthen strategic partnerships and develop new opportunities," continued Becker. "His unique experience working with premium publishers and content owners is ideal as the company continues its growth trajectory."

Sascha will be an integral part of the growing New York AnyClip team, which recently moved into a larger office in Herald Square to accommodate the company's continued growth.

The company is hiring for its London, NY and Tel Aviv offices.
