"LeapPoint is an expert in delivering the process optimisation, workflow automation and technology integrations critical to the implementation of a modern marketing operating model. This acquisition therefore not only strengthens our existing content supply chain capabilities, but also further positions OPMG as a leader in the digital transformation space."

Omnicom is a proud user of Adobe's Content Supply Chain solution to connect the people, processes, and technology necessary to provide Omnicom's specialized, integrated client services.

"LeapPoint is unique in their ability to design and build modern operating models anchored on Adobe's Content Supply Chain solution," said Brent Rudewick, Head of Strategy and Product for Adobe GenStudio and Adobe Workfront.
