Aprimo Acquires ADAM Software

Aprimo, provider of a marketing operations platform, has acquired ADAM Software, a global provider of enterprise-class digital asset management (DAM) software solutions. ADAM solutions will be integrated directly into Aprimo’s platform, offering customers a marketing operations solution capable of handling both the production and publication of content.
