Today's Unlimited Partner is Tom Shea, Co-Founder & COO of Adgile Media Group. Adgile boasts itself as the leading data-driven truck-side media company. Tom is a detail-oriented tech wiz with experience as a full stack developer and operations manager. He graduated from the University of Chicago’s Booth School of Business. Tom holds a degree in Finance, Computer Science, & Chinese from Boston College’s Carroll School of Management.

We get to hear about how Tom came up with the idea while at the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. The original idea involved digital screens that displayed ads on the sides of the trucks. And they could display ads specific to businesses geotagged to mile markers along the highway. However, the feedback was that this was too expensive. Listen to the episode to see how Tom and his team solved this problem...
