According to the recently published RECMA 2025 Overall Activity Volume (OAV) report, the Omnicom Media - an Omnicom (NYSE: OMC) Connected Capability - is now the largest global media management network, with $107.3 billion in billings ($20 billion + ahead of its nearest competitor), representing 30.1% of the global media agency market. The report also reveals Omnicom Media leads in overall activity volume across North America, EMEA and LATAM. Published annually, The RECMA Overall Activity Volume report ranks media organizations based on total managed activity volume across traditional and non-traditional media investments (which includes online paid media and fee-based activity on digital, data & analytics, content, marketing, and sponsorships) in 54 countries, providing one of the industry's most comprehensive assessments of global media market scale and competitive position. A Historic Event Describing the combination of Omnicom and IPG as a "historic event" that has reshaped the global media agency landscape, RECMA looks beyond scale alone in offering proof points for Omnicom Media's leadership, highlighting the enhanced capabilities of the AI-enable Omni Intelligence Platform through the integration of Acxiom's identity and data assets and Flywheel's commerce expertise. Together, these capabilities enable clients to connect planning, activation, measurement, and optimization across channels while benefiting from the scale, intelligence, and specialist expertise of the industry's largest media organization. Commenting on the report, Omnicom Media CEO Florian Adamski said, "Scale matters only to the extent that it creates better outcomes for our clients. Beyond billings, our leadership position reflects the investments we've made in bringing together the industry's strongest talent, technology, data and commerce capabilities into a single connected organization that can translate unprecedented scale into disproportionate growth for the world's leading brands - helping them make smarter decisions, move faster and unlock opportunities others can't."

This new solution brings together Salesforce's Data 360 and Acxiom's identity resolution to securely connect fragmented identity signals and enrich customer profiles with verified data and insights while maintaining privacy and security. The Identity Boost Accelerator connects customer data that already lives in brands' systems and enriches it with verified insights to create a complete customer view. Instead of relying on costly custom projects that can take 18 to 24 months to build, the accelerator empowers brands to deploy in weeks. It uses a secure, zero-copy architecture that keeps customer data in place rather than moving it between systems. Brands immediately see higher audience match rates, better personalization, accurately measured campaigns, and an AI-ready customer foundation. Accelerating first-party data strategies. "Brands are increasingly turning to first-party data strategies to power personalization and engagement," said Sean Muzzy, Global President at Acxiom. "The Identity Boost Accelerator makes this transition faster by delivering the identity enrichment needed to build clean, activated audiences and underpins our strategy of making Real ID available when and where clients need it." Bringing together Acxiom Real ID and Salesforce Data 360.

"This accelerator exemplifies how Acxiom and Salesforce help customers extract maximum value from their data investments," said Rekha Srivatsan, CMO, Data 360 at Salesforce. "94% of business leaders believe they aren't fully leveraging the value of their data, and without clean, complete customer identities, brands can't fully realize the potential of their martech ecosystems.
