Pitch Watch: iiNet moves media; 21st Century Fox pitch shortlist; Will Optus drag into new year?; Ikea pitches public relations
Mumbrella casts an eye over the major media, creative and public relations pitches at play in market.
In this week’s wrap up the latest on: iiNet (account move), 21st Century Fox (short list), Optus (update on media pitch), Ikea (new PR pitch).
iiNet moves $30m media account inhouse
It’s only eight months since OMD WA fought and retained the media account for the $20n iiNet however, Mumbrella can reveal that its new parent company TPG has now taken the buying inhouse.
What a kick in the guts for OMD WA. These things happen, but it would be especially annoying given the time and money that would have gone into pitching.
