Media agency Ikon Communications faces its first formal pitch to hold onto a client since the mysterious sacking of its senior team.

New Ikon boss James Greet is not due to start at the agency until July.

For “Agency relationship consultancy P3” please read “Marketing Management Consultancy TrinityP3” so as to avoid any confusion with the Asia based consultants with a similar name.
