Under the state-of-the-art planning framework -Provocative Planning, the agency has released its RPA and automation platform \u2013 WIE (Wavemaker Intelligence Engine), FRONT Model and an interest-based precision model \u2013 GRAVITY, together with Ocean Engine Yuntu.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The core of Wavemaker&#8217;s future development lies in delivering more value to its clients, continuously enhancing data, tech and digital solutions that deliver more business outcomes for brands, and staying ahead of the curve with a provocative, forward thinking mindset to make the most of emerging marketing opportunities. Even in the challenging year of 2022 in <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span>, Wavemaker achieved a 97% client retention rate, a 70% new business win rate, and sustained double digit growth for the fifth consecutive year.<\/p>\n<p>To enhance its business advantage, Wavemaker China is accelerating its digital transformation to become, more than an agency, a brand&#8217;s business partner. <span class=\"xn-person\">Jose Campon<\/span>, CEO of Wavemaker China, has set the new business architecture across 3 pillars including Business Leadership, Investment and Operations, and Strategic Solutions, each led by the best talent in the market in their respective fields.<\/p>\n<p>In times of a sluggish economic environment, brands tend to focus on immediate results, jeopardising often their future growth if not executed through a strategic lens. Wavemaker China addresses this through an operating design that simplifies complexity, allowing focus and, therefore, enables sustainable growth for both brands and the agency. With this new business architecture, Wavemaker strengthens its competitive edge in <span class=\"xn-location\">China<\/span>.<\/p>\n<p>Jose remarked, &#8220;Wavemaker China believes in Positive Provocation. We strive to be bold, to push the boundaries and move farther. We believe there is always a better way to grow, and whether its brand or performance, at the end there&#8217;s really no distinction: it&#8217;s a thorough strategy and execution that maximises the power of the brands and how they best connect with consumers to deliver short term results and sustainable, long term growth.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-person\">Patrick Xu<\/span>, WPP Greater China CEO and GroupM North Asia CEO, believes that &#8220;meaningful change can only be achieved by holding a long-term vision. The new Wavemaker China business architecture is a forward-looking organisation that responds to both current priorities and future challenges, which will incubate closer collaboration with enterprises and brands.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>About Wavemaker&nbsp;<\/b>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>We believe there always is a better way to grow.
