“919 Marketing has a clear and proven track record of getting clients national coverage in major media outlets and creating an online voice for companies and their products,” said Medisim CEO, Moshe Yarden. “I was impressed with their passion to share our vision and products with the American market and am looking forward to working with 919.”
