M&C Saatchi

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

M&C Saatchi is an advertising agency formed in January 1995 by brothers Maurice Saatchi and Charles Saatchi after they were ousted from their own advertising agency Saatchi & Saatchi.

Following M&C's launch in 1995, Adweek referred to the company as ‘The fastest growing start-up in the history of advertising’.^{[citation needed]}

The agency has won numerous awards for its creative work.^{[citation needed]}

M&C Saatchi remained an independent business until 2004, when its founders floated 49% of the agency on the Alternative Investment Market, a sub-market of the London Stock Exchange.^{[citation needed]} At that time the agency's network spanned 11 countries including the UK, United States, Australia, Hong Kong and Singapore. The London listing provided the additional capital required to expand M&C's offering across Europe and Asia, as well as boosting its presence in the US.^{[citation needed]}
