Stuart Smith, CEO Ogilvy PR EAME, had this to say about the recent award:
“I would like to thank the Holmes Report for this recognition and particularly Paul Holmes and Arun Sudhaman for their insights and advice over the years. For us it is the culmination of a three-year strategy and a tribute to the hard work of our staff across the region. It has only been possible due to the trust our clients have put in us to deliver highly effective, creative work and the exceptional quality of our leadership team across EAME.
Companies want integrated campaigns which are social by design, aligned with their brand and have content at their centre and they are increasingly turning to Ogilvy PR for answers. Both marketing and PR clients tell us we are helping them navigate, and experiment in, the new world of paid, owned and earned media.
These are fascinating times for the industry and fortune will favour those who invest in transforming the services they offer.”
