Along with the vision of growth, which has as next steps the IPO at the end of the year and acquisitions in other markets, MARCO continues to bet on the growth and career of both junior and senior talent.

In the last year, campaigns such as “The Glass Monologue”, carried out together with ANFEVI / Friends of Glass, winner of a Silver Mercury Award and nominated for the next SABRE Awards; the Danone stand at the last Alimentaria fair; various events for institutional clients, including the Junta de Andalucía, or the different premieres carried out for Prime Video, stand out. Her growth in this short period of time has been parallel to the evolution of the agency, and of the events department itself, concluding in this new appointment as Head of Events.
As the new Head of Media Relations, David Martín will be in charge of coordinating the areas of media relations in the markets where MARCO operates.

In addition, he has also been linked to the audiovisual content creation area of Real Madrid CF. and Euronews, as well as for communication agencies such as the Office Européen de Communication, in Lyon (France) and Madison MK. He has also developed different works for the Spanish Badminton Federation and the Association of Victims of Terrorism as well as with brands such as the National Indoor Football League, Panini and Munich.
Finally, Víctor Castell will assume the role of Head of Spain, representing one of MARCO’s main markets and business units. Victor, who started in MARCO’s Barcelona office as an intern, has developed his career in the Reputation area of the agency during the last 14 years. During this period he has worked in strategic management and corporate media relations on some of the main projects carried out by the consultancy firm, such as the launches of Netflix in Spain, DAZN and realme, among others. In the institutional area, he has been responsible in Spain for clients such as the Union for the Mediterranean, in addition to being in charge of the communication of all global content for COP22 from Marrakech. In alignment with this, he has been directly involved in the development of Technology, Logistics, Fintech teams and accounts as Corporate Director.
Noelia Cruzado, co-CEO of MARCO, has highlighted “the importance of strengthening internal talent in all areas and levels within MARCO, as one of the main resources of the agency. We have big goals ahead of us, with a special focus on continuing to grow internationally according to our expansion plan. We trust in these new positions, as well as in Ana, David and Victor to continue to achieve our goals, together with the rest of our consultants and clients”.
