History[]
On July 12, 2012, Publicis Kaplan Thaler was formed in the merger of Publicis Worldwide's Publicis New York and Publicis Groupe's Kaplan Thaler Group. The combined New York-based entity, with over 650 employees, became the U.S. flagship agency within the Publicis Worldwide network of over 200 offices in 82 countries.[citation needed]
On June 30, 2015, Publicis Kaplan Thaler shortened its name to Publicis New York and officially put the PKT name and KTG agency to rest.[citation needed] The Publicis agency would renovate KTG's original 3 floors at 1675 Broadway and expand to other floors, replacing the brightly colored walls, carpet and Lego wall with a sea of red carpet squares and open office workspaces. The space has been expanded to 8 floors of open-seating in the Activity-Based Working framework, designed by the award-winning Clive Wilkinson.[5] The space won in the Large Office category for Interior Design's awards in 2018.[6]
