Dentsu Aegis Network acquires Dutch agency Oxyma
The Rotterdam-headquartered digital agency, which has offices in Amsterdam, Breda and a location in Dubai, will be integrated into Dentsu’s Merkle agency.
Oxyma comprises a group of five specialist agencies for CRM, paid, owned, and earned media, with clients including Unilever, KLM, Audi and Vodafone.
The acquisition will scale Merkle’s business in the EMEA region with the addition of Oxyma’s 300 employees. Merkle is headquartered in Columbia, Maryland, with offices in the US, Europe and Asia.
