    New York, NY, Oct. 18, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Interpublic Group (NYSE: IPG) announced today that Jayna Kothary will be taking on a new role as IPG’s Chief Solutions Architect, moving to IPG from its subsidiary MRM, where she had been the Global Chief Technology Officer at the relationship marketing and martech company. Jayna begins her new role at IPG on November 1, and will report to IPG CEO Philippe Krakowsky. In the new position, Jayna will architect technology teams and solutions for IPG clients that integrate the company’s data, platform and commerce capabilities to drive accelerated growth for brands and marketers. Jayna will also focus on developing partnerships and resources that further innovation, and work alongside business operating leaders to accelerate growth for clients across IPG.

It’s part of the fabric of how we deliver work product and engage with clients, and how we help them grow and achieve future fit strategies. Having the right solutions leads to increased efficiency and improved consumer experiences, which is what accelerates growth for brands. I’m excited and humbled to take on a larger role at IPG, working closely with Philippe, Jeriad Zoghby, Jacki Kelley and key operative leaders across the group, in order to ensure we’re building the right solutions that help brands win now and in the future,” added Jayna Kothary.
