Dentsu International leaves the Russian market

Dentsu International leaves the Russian market in response to the country's invasion of Ukraine on February 24. The company transfers the ownership of a joint venture in Russia to its local partner.

Dentsu teams worldwide, particularly in EMEA, have stepped up to provide humanitarian support to those impacted in Ukraine, including transporting team members and their families from Ukraine borders to Poland, securing job transfers and secondments to other areas in the network, and providing legal and housing support.

Dentsu will also donate another 100 million yen (approximately £650,000) to support victims of the war in Ukraine. This is an additional aid of £250,000, which was already given to the 'International Red Cross Ukraine Appeal' in the first days of the war on February 25.

Dentsu stands unequivocally with Ukraine and the global community, who call for the restoration of peace. In these unprecedented times, as a global business, we will continue to prioritize the safety of people.
