What does the future hold for media agencies? On this week's #MediaSnack LIVE we look into recent changes amongst media agency networks and the challenges that lay ahead. We see divergent strategies from the different holding companies, who will win out?
Each week we ask:
- What's going on?
- What are the implications?
- What marketers should be doing?
Our LIVE guest this week is the Editor-In-Chief of Campaign, Gideon Spanier, who gives us additional insight into the relative fortunes and opportunities for the advertising holding companies, with particular reference to two recent articles of his:
