New York, NY (PRWEB) November 15, 2016 -- After a multi-agency digital pitch, J. Walter Thompson has been named agency of record for Lux’s global digital strategy and content business.

Walter Thompson aims to move at the speed of culture, we are fortunate to have in Lux a client partner that believes in what we can accomplish with them in the digital landscape. It is an honor to build upon such a long-standing partnership. I can’t wait to see what’s to come.”
 
An integrated team from J. Walter Thompson, Mirum, and Mutato will provide connected agency services to present the Lux brand in all channels.
 
Anne Radmacher, Global Brand VP at Lux, added: “As all brand leaders know, successfully navigating the digital arena is critical to continued growth, and we’re happy to move ahead in the digital realm with J. Walter Thompson as our digital creative partner. It’s an exciting evolution of our long-standing relationship.”
