Going forward, WPP Team Sunlight will provide access to talent from across WPP companies, including Kantar, Barrows, Mindshare, TMARC, Smollan and other speciality teams.
Mark Read, WPP chief operating officer, said:
“Reflecting WPP’s global approach for Unilever, WPP Team Sunlight is a simple solution that embraces people from different agencies, markets and areas of speciality to produce the most creative and effective work for the client.
