Healthcircle and Fishawack have already collaborated extensively and we’ve known and worked with many of the Carling team over our years in the business.”
Gail Flockhart, Group Managing Director at Fishawack said, “All agencies are collections of people with different talents. What makes us different is the investment we make in establishing real chemistry between teams so that collaboration is fun and triggers new ideas. We’re still at a size where we can make this meaningful.”
