“Marco appeared to us as a more than legitimate successor. I always thought that Marco would be the perfect cast to succeed me in this role. He has talent, he has intelligence. And above all, today, he has largely acquired a central place within the Groupe. As for me, of course, I remain close to Publicis, and to Marcel." explains Anne de Maupeou. “I joined Publicis Conseil three years ago to follow a project, for iconic talents and brands. I am proud of what has been accomplished in recent years and especially happy that Anne and Agathe entrust me with this responsibility for the Groupe in France. Creative talents and the quality of what they deliver every day are my priority. For me, with this appointment, it's just the scale that changes." adds Marco Venturelli, President overseeing creativity of Publicis Conseil.
