Agency Report Card 2017: DigitasLBi

We assess DigitasLBi's 2017 performance in India, based on its business results, its innovation and initiatives, its work and awards and its people and leadership.

Agency Report Card 2017: DigitasLBi
In 2017 DigitasLBi, looked to steer clear of industry buzz words like ‘content is king’, ‘data driven’, ‘customer centric’ and ‘social by design’ by building an agency rooted in ‘marketing transformation’.
It used the power of data to solve business problems through creativity, technology, media and customer relationships. It used its group’s Publicis.Sapient platform to tap into data engineering and study emerging technologies.
 
It also collaborated with Publicis Groupe companies like Leo Burnett for creative and Starcom on the media side. Other alliances with partners such as Sitecore and Adobe were used to deliver marketing technology solutions. The agency also implemented its global programmatic solutions offering, IDIOM, in India which helped it apply disparate data signals to marketing.
