Aleph Group

Accelerating Digital Advertising Across 130+ Markets

Global digital advertising infrastructure connecting 50+ platforms (TikTok, Snap, Spotify) to 26,000 advertisers across 130+ emerging markets. Dubai-HQ, 2,060 employees, valued at $2B.

FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK

Aleph occupies a rare position in adtech: it is the dominant infrastructure layer connecting global digital platforms to advertisers in 130+ markets where those platforms lack direct sales. Founded by Argentine entrepreneur Gaston Taratuta (EY World Entrepreneur of the Year 2022), Aleph serves as exclusive ad partner for TikTok, Snap, Spotify, Amazon, Reddit, X, and Uber across emerging markets.

The 2024 Entravision acquisition expanded APAC footprint, and in 2026, Saudi group SMC Media signed a term sheet for a minority stake plus a MENA/Turkey JV. FIFA also named Aleph exclusive partner for World Cup 2026 in the Philippines. With 2,060 employees across 90+ offices and a $2B valuation, Aleph has built an almost invisible but essential utility for global digital advertising.
