LumaPartners, a US-based consulting firm, has created a series of infographics that chart the various vertical of the digital media industry including display advertising, mobile, commerce, search, social, and video. Dubbed LUMAscapes, each infographic provides a breakdown of the players in the vertical, by category. The focus is US-centric and the categorization is limited at times, but it’s a great starting point!
These LumaScapes are quickly becoming a tool for M&A departments to make their picks and the graphs will keep evolving, says Terence Kawaja, the founder of LumaPartners and seasoned investment banker.
