MSLGROUP: PublicisLive opens its fifth hub in Turkey

The creation of the Eurasia hub is a strategic move for the Swiss based firm, already present in Switzerland, France and the United Arab Emirates (Abu Dhabi & Dubai). It fulfills the needs of its existing clients, establishes important relations of proximity with many of those and will help the company to gain market shares in this key emerging region of the world. Turkey's rise as a key growth market and a pivotal commercial and geo-political player is a fact.

Working for the most important and influential organizations across the world, PublicisLive has consolidated the development of its expertise continually over the past 20 years. By offering their clients a solid structure and a unique holistic approach, the firm contributes to strengthen their strategic positioning in an always more unpredictable and difficult environment.

Selcuk Kiper, a renowned professional of the Turkish communication industry, with his 18 years experience and multi-sector background, will lead the Eurasia entity.

Anthony Gazagne, Chairman & CEO of PublicisLive, said: "I am looking forward to create more added value and difference to our clients and continue to write PublicisLive's story with Selcuk and his great team. Turkey and the region indeed came as an evidence as our ties with this country and its neighbors have grown over the past few years".

"I am really excited to be part of the PublicisLive family. With Anthony and the team, we share the same vision and most importantly the same values. Those are key aspects, which will help us deliver good results on a short-term basis. Publicislive will bring a new dimension and dynamism to the event management sector in Turkey with its global know-how and expertise. " add Selcuk Kiper, Managing Director of PublicisLive - Eurasia.
