Lewis will lead efforts to expand advertising opportunities within the Shazam App as well as help global brands to make their TV adverts Shazam-enabled.

With more than 20 years in communications, including AOL and Yahoo!, Lewis is a leading professional in digital media. Lewis has also built award-winning sales teams during his time with AOL and, more recently, for Last.fm where he formally launched the commercial function in 2007.
