The agency BBDO, chaired and led by Carlos Vaca, won the account of Financial Group Scotiabank in Mexico. This achievement adds to the other two accounts won so far in the year. Vaca said the allocation is the result of a strategic approach, deep understanding of the consumer and the quality of creative work. Grupo Scotiabank is part of one of the main financial institutions in North America, which has the Canadian bank with the largest international presence.
- 360i – Argentina
HBO appointed 360i to manage its social media marketing, assuming the works that the TV network performed internally, after the incorporation in 2007 of Sabrina Caluori as vice president of social media and marketing of performance. The hiring of an outside agency comes when Netflix – HBO’s biggest competitor, has integration with Facebook.
