MullenLowe looks increasingly fractured in APAC

AGENCY REPORT CARD: From big plans for a unified attack a few years ago, the IPG network is now a looser collection of majority-owned shops and affiliates. But is that necessarily a bad thing?

With three more shops sold over to local management and the elimination of its APAC CEO role, MullenLowe, despite strength in lots of areas, has seemingly turned its back on building a joined-up operation. What does that mean for the network's report card? 

Our full Agency Report Card on MullenLowe—including the overall grade plus a detailed analysis and scores for management; innovation; clients and business; creativity; and people and diversity—is available only to Campaign Asia-Pacific members.
