EXCERPTS

The Growth Phase

Like its counterparts, Omnicom too adopted the mergers and acquisition route to become a leading global advertising group with an extensive portfolio of marketing and communication services. In 1990, the group established the Diversified Agency Services (DAS) division, to identify and acquire the top players in their respective fields in the marketing and communication businesses (other than advertising).
