Novo Nordisk shifts US media business from WPP to Omnicom

Omnicom Media Group has been awarded Novo Nordisk's US media account following a competitive review, ending the pharmaceutical giant's long-standing media relationship with WPP and marking another significant shift in the global agency landscape.

The appointment covers media planning and buying in the US for Novo Nordisk, whose portfolio includes blockbuster diabetes and weight-loss brands Ozempic and Wegovy. The account is understood to be one of the year's most closely watched media pitches, given the rapid growth of the GLP-1 market and Novo Nordisk's sizeable advertising investment.

The move represents another setback for WPP, which has been under pressure amid a series of account reviews and client changes globally. Novo Nordisk's decision follows a competitive process that saw Omnicom emerge as the successful bidder for the US business.
