Yannick Bollor Denies Havas is in Talks With Vivendi
Posted in: Uncategorized
Havas CEO Yannick Bollor talked about options for the French communications group’s future — and the possible impact of a Publicis Omnicom merger — in a conference call covering full year results for 2013.
Mr. Bollore, son of the group’s biggest shareholder, Vincent Bollore, presented Havas annual results for the first time. He was promoted to CEO in January 2014 after the departure of predecessor David Jones to start a tech business.
He didn’t rule out any options for the group’s future, but Mr. Bollor seemed to prefer the idea that Havas would invest in entertainment and content options as a way to find a niche for itself once the combined Publicis and Omnicom group is approved, likely to be later this year.
