Euro RSCG's Key Talent Acquisitions Lead to Surge In International New Business Wins and Creative Recognition

NEW YORK, Jan. 8 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- Advertising Age and Campaign, the top advertising trade publications in the United States and United Kingdom, respectively, have both pronounced Euro RSCG Worldwide to be the best global agency in the industry.

Advertising Age announced today that Euro RSCG Worldwide is the 2006 Global Agency of the Year. The agency was selected based on a number of criteria, including international business growth, thought leadership and innovation by agency management, and creative and effective marketing campaigns for their clients. Last month, Campaign selected Euro RSCG Worldwide as its choice for Advertising Network of the Year, also highlighting the agency's strong leadership by its senior management, and impressive streak of new business wins around the world.

"2006 was a terrific year for the agency and it is extremely gratifying to be recognized by the media on both sides of the Atlantic," said David Jones, Global CEO, Euro RSCG Worldwide. "We believe that it's possible for an agency to be both truly global and highly creative and I think these accolades are support for that point of view."

In the past 18 months, Euro RSCG Worldwide has experienced $3 billion in new business growth in the form of competitive new business pitches and existing business expansions. The fall 2005 win of the global Jaguar account started off a winning streak for Euro RSCG, which included the global accounts for Veolia, Reckitt Benckiser, and Sanofi-Aventis, as well as EDF Energy in France, Alcatel-Lucent, Danone, Disney Theme Parks, LG, Harley Davidson, and Dell. The Benefiber (Novartis) and Vivendi accounts both expanded considerably, as well.

Jones continued: "I'd especially like to thank all of our clients, as the awards are a reflection of the work we've done in partnership, and our staff of 11,000 around the world for their dedication and commitment."
