Le Truc is a next-generation creative model consistent with Publicis Groupe\u2019s Power of One and Marcel platform. It will operate as a prototype hub, initially in New York, with a test and learn spirit and is designed to fuel the organization\u2019s creativity offering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/a>The founding partners that form the chief creative leadership of Le Truc include new hires Neil Heymann and Bastien Baumann, with Liz Taylor and Andy Bird. Le Truc will be led by Carla Serrano as President, with Elaine Barker who will lead resource management and operations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The new entity brings together the NYC-based creative and production force of Publicis, Digitas, Razorfish, Rokkan, Saatchi & Saatchi and Publicis Media.
The space will be nestled at the heart of Publicis Groupe\u2019s flagship building at 375 Hudson, in order to service all parts of the operation. It is being designed by A+I, renowned for developing the creatively progressive headquarters of Squarespace and Equinox. The goal is a space that can further fuel the creativity of our core and unique agency brands, fluidly in an onsite\/online hybrid world,while boosting the collaborative and spontaneous energy creatives have missed through the pandemic.
That’s the reason why Le Truc is named so. This French word means \u201cthe thingamajig, the knack, the way\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
