Following the launch in March this year, Coca-Cola’s Global Media Review has concluded with WPP appointed as Coca-Cola’s global marketing network partner – operating under a bespoke unit, OpenX. 

The OpenX team will manage creative, media, data and marketing technology across Coca-Cola’s entire portfolio of brands and its global ventures.  Dentsu retains business as ‘complementary media partner,’ and Coca-Cola will tap into an open-source model for creative services.
