Notes to Editors
Adventis's strategy is to focus its marketing and media buying services on the
healthcare, financial services and property sectors, in which it has the
opportunity to build significant market positions.
There are three main strands to Adventis' strategy to develop the business:
• Consolidation of its position in the healthcare, financial services,
residential and commercial property markets, which are predominantly
serviced by a large number of small operators;
• Diversification into other specific sectors which have a requirement for a
higher level of expertise;
• Maintain / increase profit margins which are amongst the strongest in the
industry.
Management intends to achieve these objectives through a mix of organic
development, acquisitions and by creating structures to attract new senior
people with proven revenue earning ability and appropriate sector expertise.
