WPP announces that its wholly-owned marketing communications network, Ogilvy & Mather, has acquired a stake in its digital partner in Ireland, Eightytwenty Customer Experience Limited ("Eightytwenty"), market leader in the Irish digital communications industry.

Dublin-based Eightytwenty employs over 30 people and has developed a bespoke model that combines creative, data, performance media and technology to design and deliver campaign narratives across the entire customer journey.
