PROVIDENCE – DiJiPOP, a Providence-based startup whose flagship product is an on-demand shopper marketing technology platform, was acquired on Jan. 24.

Boston-based OwnerIQ, which targets ads based on products consumers already own, made an all-stock deal; the financial details were not disclosed.
