Stagwell Agencies Doner and Colle McVoy Merge to Form DonerColle Partners
Stagwell agencies Doner and Colle McVoy have joined forces to form DonerColle Partners, a new entity created to serve the brands that move America. The company said, "As the Midwest emerges as the demographic and cultural center of today's consumer landscape, DonerColle Partners is strategically positioned to help brands connect where it matters most. Unifying operations across more than 500 employees in Detroit, Minneapolis and Chicago, the partnership is built on a foundation of modern creativity and is grounded in a genuine understanding of the people and places that drive American business. Geographically and fundamentally, DonerColle Partners is poised to more effectively and authentically relate to and embrace the sensibilities of everyday Americans who are often overlooked or disregarded by coastal agencies. Doner and Colle McVoy will maintain their unique identities and client relationships under DonerColle Partners. Structured as a strategic alliance rather than a merger, the arrangement preserves the specialized expertise and culture that have made each successful while enabling deeper collaboration, broadened creative capabilities, scaled media offerings and state-of-the-art production studios. The enhanced offering will be led by Jessica Henrichs as CEO and David DeMuth as executive chairman."
