WPP in surprise rebrand of top PR firm as Hill & Knowlton Strategies

By Stephen Foster on December 2, 2011

WPP boss Sir Martin Sorrell seems to have decided it’s not good enough to be ‘just’ a PR firm these days, even if the PR firm in question is one of the world’s biggest and most famous.

By Stephen Foster on October 13, 2011

You’d think that Maurice Levy’s Publicis Groupe already had enough digital media agencies with Digitas, Razorfish and two acquisitions this year in Rosetta Marketing Group and Big Fuel. But Levy (pictured), an IT expert himself in the days when computers were rather larger than they are now, is clearly determined to dominate this area (in [...]
