NEW YORK and MANILA, Philippines, Feb. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Stagwell (NASDAQ: STGW), the challenger network built to transform marketing, has added Octopus&Whale, a Philippines-based game and experience design agency that helps companies parlay ideas into immersive communications, to its fast-growing Global Affiliate Network to bolster full-service and specialty digital solutions for clients across Asia-Pacific. 

The partnership comes as Stagwell accelerates its commitment to growth across Asia, anchored by its regional offices in Singapore and Malaysia, and over 25 affiliate partners in Asia to date.

Octopus&Whale is now celebrating its fourth year, having expanded its client base to include some of the Philippines' most iconic names in business, such as SM, Meralco, NutriAsia, Unilab, and Philippine Airlines. As the country's only agency with a focus on gaming, they aim to complement the full-service creative, media and digital services offered by Stagwell.

Octopus&Whale was also the first Filipino agency to venture into the blockchain with "Save Our Sharks," a metaverse initiative generating over $1.5M worth of digital collectibles to drive awareness for Philippine shark conservation.

"Tiempo and the entire Octopus&Whale team strive to exceed client needs while pushing boundaries across immersive experiences. We're pleased to partner with them and bring their expertise in the fast-growing gaming and experience space to larger clients in the Philippines and Southeast Asia," said Randy Duax, managing director, Asia-Pacific for Stagwell.
