Pablo and Wonderhood Studios will now be going head to head in a final shootout for the Deliveroo global creative account after Lucky Generals pulled out of the running. Pitches are set to take place at the end of next week. Chime360 is the incumbent.
Bupa is due to shortlist agencies this week after launching a review of its UK media buying and planning requirements. The private healthcare provider has split with Wavemaker after nine years and Wavemaker's parent network, Group M, is believed to have put forward alternative agencies to contest the pitch. Chemistry meetings were held last week for the £5m account and Ebiquity is assisting with the process.
