flipboard-japan

Japanese ad agency Dentsu (TYO: 4324) and ADK Group have announced (pdf) that they have become business partners for Flipboard in Japan.

With this partnership, the companies will help Flipboard establish media partnerships, as well as market the social magazine app and promote it as an advertising medium.

And in today’s announcement, 30 media organizations were noted as exclusive content additions, including GQ Japan, TechCrunch Japan, Nikkei Business, Tech-on, ITpro, Sumally, and Tabelog. More will be added in the future.

Japan was the third country (after China and France) to get a localized edition of Flipboard, and the nation ranks among the service’s top countries.

It was just a couple of weeks back that Flipboard celebrated its second birthday. Currently it has more than 20 million users in total, adding a new user every second on average.
