Debby Cheung, President of Ogilvy & Mather Group/Shanghai said, “In the past year, many more global companies have moved their regional hubs to China and many Chinese brands pursued international expansion. To respond to this shift, agencies must offer international perspectives and deliver work at a global standard, even from China. Francis and Martin’s appointments represent milestones in our assembly of a first-class international team. I’m very excited to see how they will contribute to fostering a culture that embraces differences while encouraging exchange of ideas. It’s this broadening of our horizons that creates magic for clients, and for our teams.”
