For Omnicom and Publicis, the timing of the collapse of their planned $35 billion merger was awkward: It came just as advertising leaders gathered in Beijing for the IAA World Congress. WPP CEO Martin Sorrell was among the first speakers Friday, and he couldn’t resist making a few digs about his rivals’ failed deal.
“I think that was, and if I could be so bold, an ill-considered attempt at consolidation in our industry,” said Mr. Sorrell, who frequently criticized his competitors’ merger plans. The deal’s failure means Mr. Sorrell’s WPP Group will maintain its grip on the top spot in the industry by revenue, at $17.25 billion.
“What’s interesting about the market mechanism is it shakes out deals that don’t have a basic and strategic logic and underpinning,” Mr. Sorrell said, adding that “the chickens come home to roost in the end.”

The elections to the European Parliament are just around the corner. From 22-25 of May, 375,000,000 Europeans will have the opportunity to cast their votes. For a large number of young Europeans, this will be their first time to vote. To remind these first-time voters about the elections, the European parliament asked Ogilvy Brussels to develop a video that can best be described as a hybrid between a music video and a short action movie.
The video shows a young guy queuing in a dreary polling station. Just as he’s about to cast his vote, he bumps his head. This is followed by a sequence of rather strange events, starring a flock of sheep in the lead role.
The video targets first-time voters in all 28 EU member states –a challenging undertaking and a lot of sheep.
