According to Rokt’s chief executive, Bruce Buchanan, the company has been profitable since 2014 and is on track to earn between $100 million to $110 million in revenue this year
With the new funding, Rokt plans to grow its headcount from 260 employees currently to more than 400 by the end of next year.
