My focus will be to grow our social and creative impact on the world. We intend to be evermore ambitious and radically creative.” Wolff Olins has worked with many famous brands including Google, ZocDoc, Virgin Active, and Grubhub, among others; it is part of Diversified Agency Services which, in turn, is a division of Omnicom Group.
