MSLGroup, the flagship strategic communications and engagement consultancy of Publicis Groupe, has won the Grand Stevie Award Trophy for Marketing Agency of the Year at the 12th International Business Awards (IBAs).

Glenn Osaki, President - Asia, MSLGroup, remarked, “MSLGroup has transformed itself and is now clearly leading the change within our category. With integrated storytelling and creativity at the core, we are pioneering new technologies for cutting edge data, insights and engagement, while never losing focus of why we are trusted by our clients in the first place: our ability to drive results and deliver impact on their business. I'm incredibly proud of our teams for their innovative marketing and communications campaigns that make our clients' voice matter.”
