Its data DNA, technology-driven culture, and business-centric positioning combine to create a premium approach to the market with the ability to deliver high-stakes business optimization projects.
This acquisition capitalizes on the synergy of talents in terms of technological expertise and consulting know-how, which will enable Havas Media’s Business Science division, a unit dedicated to harnessing the power of data and AI, to further accelerate its development by offering increasingly innovative solutions to support brands in their transformation challenges.
In doing so, Havas is creating a solution that is unprecedented on the market, combining data, automation, robotization and artificial intelligence. As a result, Havas’ teams can deliver process automation projects powered by AI, allowing them to achieve an unparalleled level of accuracy as well as operational and financial efficiency.
Supported by a network with global reach as well as local expertise, these solutions will be available both in France and internationally for companies operating in all sectors.
