Aran Hamilton

As the CEO and Co-Founder of Vantage, Aran has led the vision, strategy, and building of Vantage into the market-leading retail media orchestration platform. Vantage helps the world’s top retailers launch and scale retail media networks, unifying teams and integrating technologies across onsite, offsite, and in-store media assets.

Founded in 2013, Vantage was an early partner of the Walmart Media Group (as it was then known). Vantage is differentiated as bringing deep retail expertise and a retailer-focused approach to the business of retail media. Today, with offices in Toronto, Atlanta, Austin, and Melbourne, Aran and the team at Vantage are a trusted partner to leading retailers like The Home Depot and Ulta Beauty.

Aran grew up on the beaches of Nova Scotia and spent his early career in corporate strategy, data privacy, and digital trust. He, his wife Krista, and their three pre-teen kids are all fans of basketball, barbecue, and Great Danes.
