Dentsu Gets Serious About America

CEO of Dentsu America Tim Andree will be the company’s first non-Japanese “executive officer.” Whoo-hoo! He’s one step away from being on the board. Go Team America! Dentsu is hoping that Tim can help them crack off a bit more of the American market share.

AdAge notes that “Mr. Andree has been trying to revitalize the agency, steering a major reorganization of U.S. operations — including staff overhauls and acquisitions such as its purchase of San Francisco shop Attik.”

Isn’t nice to hear something coming out of Dentsu that has nothing to do with Steve Biegel? The latest with all that hoopla is that the case is meandering it’s away around the U.S. District Court in New York with pre-trail hearing set for November 24.
