Havas London (formerly known as Euro RSCG London) is a London-based integrated advertising agency.[1] It is part of the Havas Worldwide network (formerly known as Euro RSCG Worldwide) network which has 316 offices located in 75 countries throughout Europe, North America, Latin America, Asia Pacific and the Middle East.

In September 2012 the Euro RSCG Worldwide network rebranded to Havas Worldwide.[2]

History

Euro RSCG London was first created by merging Colman RSCG and Horner Collis Kirvan.[3]

In 1994, Euro RSCG's London office was relaunched as Euro RSCG Wnek Gosper by Mark Wnek and Brett Gosper who had been approached by the Euro RSCG network to turn the agency around.[4] Brett Gosper left for New York in 2003.[5] Mark Wnek also left in January 2004, whereafter the names of the founders were dropped and the agency was renamed Euro RSCG London.[6]

Renaming

Euro RSCG itself was renamed Havas Worldwide in 2012, and the London office was then renamed Havas Worldwide London. The name was later shortened to Havas London.

Key clients

The agency works for global brands including Chivas Regal, Birds Eye, Reckitt Benckiser, Evian, PSA Peugeot Citroen, Unilever, Ideal Standard, Credit Suisse, Maggie's Centres, Mothercare and Mondelēz International.

Former clients include Abbey National,[7] Iomega,[8] Argos[9] and Cadbury.[10]
