The new partnership brings together BBDO’s integrated expertise with Boom Digital’s experience in social media and team of experts, including Boom Digital Founder Ming Wei, one of Southeast Asia’s most followed TikTok creators. In addition to having 35 million followers on social media, he has created comedy skits and videos that have gained more than 10 billion views with his father, Daddy Ming.
Under the new agreement, the two agencies will collaborate on client communication needs to provide businesses across a variety of industries with tested and proven social media strategies that will optimize their brand’s social presence.

We will now be able to turbocharge our digital solutions with critical data insights and strategy from a leading practitioner in this space. I expect some really interesting outcomes from this partnership. Watch this space!” said Melvin Kuek, CEO of BBDO Singapore.
“I met Melvin some time ago through one of my current global clients – the Global Esports Federation. I see huge potential for growth in the roadmap of possibilities he shared for this partnership with BBDO. I definitely see this as a great opportunity to scale up BOOM’s offerings beyond social media and influencer marketing,” added Ming Wei Ng, founder and chief creator, Boom Digital Media.
“I’m a big fan of Ming’s work. The rise of his social media reach and gravitas over the last couple of years has been nothing short of phenomenal. I’m excited to inject BOOM’s engine to enhance BBDO’s social team, bringing digital first creativity to the next level,” added Tay Guan Hin, creative chairman of BBDO Singapore.
