Havas Supercharges Data Capabilities with Expanded Partnership with Funnel – AI-Tech Park

A five-year remit with the leading marketing intelligence platform empowers Havas’ vision to accelerate data quality at scale.

Funnel (www.funnel.io), a leading marketing intelligence company, has today announced that Havas (www.havas.com), one of the world’s largest global communications groups, has expanded its partnership to a new five-year remit, with an expanded scope that provides data organisation and quality capabilities to Havas’ 23,000 people in over 100 countries. The deal expands on an existing partnership between Havas Media Network and Funnel, with the increased remit coming as Havas evolves the Media Network’s bespoke audience planning tool into a unifying operating system for the entire communications group.

Havas’recently announced global Converged strategy leverages a €400 million commitment in data, technology and AI to build bridges between creative, media, and production, delivering a seamless experience for clients across the world. As Havas seeks to accelerate data quality at scale across the group, the expanded partnership will leverage Funnel’sData Hub to manage, monitor and troubleshoot its data.

Funnel has been a valued partner to Havas Media Network for many years in transforming data from our partners into value for our clients. As we enter the next stage of our data-driven transformation, our expanded remit with Funnel will enable us to put high-quality data at the centre of our entire group, fuelling AI-driven decisioning and automation and delivering better solutions faster to the brands we champion.
