In addition, Ms. Dupree will also oversee the development of additional new services that use the advanced capabilities of PPM technology, with emphasis on services for TV, print and emerging media.

“Linda and her team have done a spectacular job in bringing Project Apollo from a gleam in our eye to a large-scale pilot backed by some of the biggest advertisers in the world,” Arbitron president and CEO Steve Morris said in a release announcing the promotion. “Her recent presentations at ESOMAR in Shanghai and the ARF in New York, made jointly with our clients, have displayed tangible evidence that Project Apollo has the power to reveal the significant consumer targeting capabilities of new and traditional media.”
