Havas has implemented a unique business model with a simple, clear, agile and integrated structure placing digital at the core of all its activities and agencies, unifying creative and media assets and strengthening the visibility of its global brand by renaming its largest network.

The Havas group will now consist of two main brands: Havas Media, which includes all global media agencies, and Havas Creative, which includes the Havas Worldwide network and the Arnold Worldwide micronetwork (16 agencies in 15 countries in five continents) and the other communications agencies.

As of today, all Euro RSCG agencies are renamed Havas Worldwide (316 offices in 75 countries, including the Euro RSCG, Euro RSCG Life, Euro RSCG 4D and Euro RSCG WW PR brands). The rebrand will not create any changes in leadership.

David Jones, CEO, Havas, commented, “A decade ago, we set ourselves apart by being the first major communication holding company to place digital at the core of all our agencies around the world. I think we're once again pioneering through the integration of creative, media and digital. Our industry doesn't make it easy for clients. They are the ones who have to do the hard job of sifting through big bureaucratic holding companies to try to get a variety of different companies, cultures and P&L's to work together; to try to get creative, media and digital to collaborate.”

Jones further said, “With this name change and with the moving together of our creative and media companies in Paris and New York, we're aiming to reinforce a key competitive advantage of Havas – that we're the most integrated of all of the communications groups with the simplest structure that can offer our clients a powerful combination of creative excellence, digital expertise, scale, agility and innovation."

The rebranding also includes the creation of Havas Digital Group, a new umbrella brand that will operate across both media and creative. Havas Digital Group will purely be a brand name as opposed to a new network or new operational division and reflects Havas's continued commitment to its digital at the core model.

The Havas Media brand, as well as its network names (MPG, Arena Media Communications, Havas Digital and Havas Sports & Entertainment), remains unchanged. Havas Media will reveal a new visual identity at the beginning of 2013.

 

Jones added, “Today, with the rebranding we're making a small change, but it's one we want to use as a catalyst for driving big change through Havas and the broader industry.”
