Ryan Merket joined the InMobi team after the acquisition of his company, AppGalleries.com, in July of 2012. Ryan currently is currently the GM of AppGalleries.com and Director of Developer Relations in the InMobi San Francisco office.
Ryan has had a lifelong love of tech. He first learned how to program at the early age of eleven years old, developed his first website at 13, and started his first internet business at the age of 16. Along with his passion for programming, Ryan is equally passionate about design. Ryan holds a degree in Visual Design from Oklahoma Wesleyan University.
Prior to joining InMobi, Ryan was the CEO and co-founder of AppGalleries.com, a white-label app store platform that gives publishers the tools to showcase mobile apps that are highly relevant to their users. Ryan founded AppGalleries.com after leaving Facebook, where he helped major platform partners like Disney, Hulu and Spotify effectively leverage the Facebook Platform. Before Facebook, Ryan co-founded Ping.fm (accquired by Seesmic), a service that allows users to post across multiple social networks at once. Ryan originally made his way out to San Francisco when he took a role at CBS Interactive as a Senior Product Designer. There he launched the very first implementation of Facebook Login and numerous viral Facebook applications.
