Tuesday, May 25th was a big day for us here at the Rubicon Project. It marked the date of an expansion of our family, in people and in location. SiteScout, a malware security technology provider based in Seattle, joined us in our quest to build a complete publisher technology platform. By joining our Rubicon Project team, they are leaving behind a lot of great memories and joining 150 tRP team members who are very happy to have them here! The whole team erupted in applause when their team walked through the door and into our office- now that’s not a bad welcome 
.
Since communication and transparency are cultural values for us (and something we live, breathe, and do) we called an All Hands on Deck team meeting the morning of the acquisition. It was a chance to introduce our new team members to the entire global company and learn the value that SiteScout is bringing to our business. People were able to ask questions of the SiteScout team and everyone left feeling positive about the partnership. While the new team members were kept extremely busy during the day (back to back meetings makes you tough!) we did take some time Tuesday night to have a happy hour event here at the LA office, so folks could meet the team and get to know their new colleagues.
Acquisition’s can be challenging. Great companies have suffered after not putting in the time and resources necessary to make sure things go smoothly. Here at the Rubicon Project, we are all committed to making sure our new team members feel welcome and can hit the ground running. Tuesday was, in all honestly, a huge celebration for us and a chance for the two teams to come together- a reward for a lot of hard work and great dreams for the future.
So, Seattle here we come! We will have a Rubicon Project office located in Pioneer Square- close to QWEST field and the home of the very beloved Seattle Sounders. We will be spending the next couple weeks getting the office “Rubiconized”, teaching our new team members how we communicate and get stuff done, and working on integrating the product and doing what we do on behalf of our publishers and partners!

On December 5, 2009 the Rubicon Project celebrated two things: the holiday season and our amazing team members (and the people who love them). Every holiday season, the Rubicon Project takes an evening to celebrate a year of hard work, new team members, our relationships with our customers and partners, and a whirlwind of challenges and (of course) solutions! Each year, the party gets a little bit better, as our team grows and new faces get to experience what is undoubtedly our best event of the year. For 2009,we out did ourselves with the theme. the Rubicon Project channeled our inner prom king and queen and held an 80’s prom, complete with a tubular 80’s cover band and costumes galore. It looked like a prom fashion show right out of the late 80’s, with every costume being better than the next. The band,
