A major announcement that marks a promising and decisive turning point in the history of the agency, La Chose, founded by Pascal Grégoire and Eric Tong Cuong.

“By immersing ourselves at the heart of the action, we’re able to react quickly and create great things. This is the energy that I loved so much at Marcel, and that I’ve found again here. But there’s something else at this agency, something very exciting, perfectly epitomized by its name: La Chose,  a  cultural  blend  of  influence,  strategy, literature and music. It’s a fabulous heritage, which comes in part from the co-founders’ experience, and one which will continue to breed beautiful brand sagas, new services, and new forms of communication merging with entertainment.” –Fabien Teichner, CCO

“This is a major milestone for the agency. We want to orient it towards creative excellence as well as grow stronger in strategy, digital and data, the core concerns of brands today. As such, Fabien is the ideal person to work with, to accompany us in this new step!” –Pascal Grégoire, CEO and Founder of La Chose.
