Permatasari (pictured) will be based in Dubai and will report directly to Michael Ward, managing director for Asia-Pacific and Middle East and North Africa.

In her new role, Permatasari will try to expand the company’s presence across Dubai and the UAE, with a particular focus on advertising effectiveness tools in the territory.

“She joins an expanding international team and will allow On Device Research further exposure across key territories.”
