Taw departs GroupM China

BEIJING - GroupM China chief strategy officer Quinn Taw has abruptly departed the network, less than a year after taking on the role.

Taw (pictured) claimed that the departure was due to "family reasons".

"I'll be looking to announce something perhaps in the next few weeks, but for now I have other priorities," Taw said. Prior to his GroupM China role, Taw spent 12 months as managing partner of MindShare China, and prior to that was managing director for MindShare Beijing.
