Caroline Paris, Creative Director; Ash Bendelow, Managing Director and Liam Fenton, Creative Director
who are part of the Brave team joining Lagard re Plus
Brave represents the creative cornerstone of the Lagard re Plus global mission to build unparalleled marketing platforms for global brand partners.
Lagard re Plus, the new global partnership marketing agency of Lagard re Sports and Entertainment, has acquired London-based creative agency Brave. The acquisition expands Lagard re Plus' capabilities and enhances the creative and consulting services it provides to current and prospective clients globally. Brave joins Lagard re Plus with an impressive track record in developing and delivering creative campaigns for global brands. Its services include advertising, content creation, and digital platform development.
Ash Bendelow, Managing Director, Brave said: Following considerable growth over the past couple of years, we weren't without approach. However, two things really stood out from our conversations with the Lagard re Sports and Entertainment team: an understanding of the value of the independent entrepreneurial culture hardwired into our business, and an aligned, progressive vision of the future of the industry. With global expertise and access to some of the world's greatest sports and entertainment talent, events, media, and rights, we are excited by what we can collectively achieve on behalf of our brand partners. There are few, if any, who can genuinely offer such a compelling proposition that tailors to the shifting nature of how consumers choose to engage with brands and content.
Bendelow will continue to lead Brave and work closely with Tim Frith, Head of Consulting in the UK for Lagard re Plus and Carl Woodman, Managing Director of Lagard re Sports. He will also work with the various international structures of Lagard re Sports and Entertainment and continue to build the Brave brand outside of the UK, with the Lagard re Plus US team scheduled to be the first to support recent client wins including Mattel.
Andrew N. Pierce, Global President, Lagard re Plus said: As we look to expand our capabilities to provide brands with complete services around their partnership marketing efforts, adding quality creative resources was a top priority and one we think makes Brave an ideal match. They are an extremely talented team with a proven track record of doing exceptional work for their clients, and we think they will be a perfect fit both for Lagard re Plus and for global opportunities across Lagard re Sports and Entertainment.
Tim Frith, Head of UK Consulting, Lagard re Plus said: We are really excited to bring Brave into the family as they will further strengthen our offering and add significant strategic, creative and digital capabilities to Plus both here in the UK and across our global markets. We have already experienced some big wins together and we are looking forward to continuing to grow the business in the UK, and help new and existing clients put brand partnerships at the core of their marketing strategies.
Lagard re Plus moves beyond Lagard re Sports and Entertainment's long-established strength in the worlds of sports and entertainment, connecting clients to partnership opportunities of all kinds. With established offices in Berlin, Dallas, Frankfurt, Hamburg, Hong Kong London, Manchester, Munich, New York, Paris, Singapore, Shanghai, and Tokyo, Lagard re Plus comes to market with a roster of blue-chip clients who are highly active in the partnership marketing space, including BMW, Bridgestone, Citibank, Danone, EA Sports, Epson, Hyundai, Lacoste, MetLife, MetroPCS, Veuve Clicquot, and ZTE.
