Well, it certainly didn’t take long for AKQA to build a presence in the City of Light, as the agency has announced that it’s now officially opened its doors in Paris with Nike France as its founding client. The new office, which will be based in central Paris’s Latin Quarter and is the eighth in the AKQA network if you’re keeping score, will be led by European managing director Guy Wieynk, creative director Peter Lund and ACDs Nicolai Smith and Julien Veillon. The staff count currently stands at 10, though AKQA hopes to add another 40 in Paris by year’s end.
