WPP STRATEGY FOR GROWTH 2021
We now provide services to clients through fewer, stronger, integrated creative agencies, industry-leading media agencies, global public relations agencies and specialist agencies.
Over the last two years, we have radically simplified our Company. We have fewer, stronger agency brands, better positioned to grow and fully equipped with the capabilities – from outstanding creativity to technology and data expertise – that modern clients demand. We are continuing to align our creative and digital credentials by bringing together AKQA and Grey; we are creating an ecommerce powerhouse by moving Geometry into VMLY&R to form VMLY&R Commerce; and we have merged three of our public relations agencies to establish global strategic communications firm Finsbury Glover Hering.
Our agencies are the platforms for our future growth: our integrated creative agencies, with their excellence in digital communications and increasingly important skills in experience and ecommerce; our industry-leading media agencies, which continue to dominate new business rankings and have been the engine of WPP for many years; our public relations agencies, whose role has been so critical for clients during the turbulence of the last year; and our specialist agencies, which provide a range of services to meet every client need.
By investing more in our agencies and their capabilities, we aim to return our core communications business to sustainable growth while expanding further into the high-growth areas of commerce, experience and technology, which we expect to increase from 25% of our business today to 40% by 2025.
