The first DELUXE Network comprises five beauty and prestige partner agencies, including Nota Bene (Spain & Portugal), On Point PR (Italy), Flare Communications (Hong Kong), Tomorrowland Group (Australia) and Impact PR (New Zealand).
Last week, DeVries held a three-day summit at its New York City offices where the DELUXE model debuted and both agency leaders and global business leaders, experts and authors discussed strategic collaboration and how to boost creative output for clients.
“Our culture has collaboration at its core, and we are passionate about disrupting traditional models to deliver exceptional results for our clients’ businesses, and our own,” said Heidi Hovland, CEO, DeVries Global. “And the approach is working … we’ve seen strong double-digit growth in the first quarter of 2017 and have robust momentum going into second-half.”
