Mumbai: Mediabrands India Network’s Lodestar UM has successfully retained the luxury auto giant, BMW’s integrated media duties. The win came on the heels of a competitive multi-agency pitch held from March to October.

Lodestar UM's renewed mandate for BMW spans the entire media spectrum, including mainline, digital, out-of-home, events, and special projects, with an ongoing focus on cementing BMW's product superiority and attracting newer, more upwardly mobile people to the premium auto segment. The account will continue to be led out of the agency’s Gurugram office.
