Singtel subsidiary Amobee won a bankruptcy auction to acquire US$101m ($137.64m) worth of assets from New York advertising firm Videology, an announcement revealed.

The acquisition will include Videology’s technology platform, intellectual property, and other assets with estimated net book value of US$5.3m ($7.22m).

According to Singtel, the move is eyed to boost Amobee’s omni-channel platform and aid marketers to answer the growing consumer demand for premium video and connected TV content.
