Grey holds most of the Nokia account working on three of Nokia's four divisions: mobile phones; enterprise solutions; and networks.
Last week, Nokia announced it was to review its global below-the-line marketing account to support a new brand positioning. The Finnish company has already issued a number of UK direct marketing agencies with a tender to handle its pan-European point-of-sale account and hopes to appoint a creative agency with retail speciality.
MediaCom holds the bulk of Nokia's media business and recently added the Asia-Pacific region to its European responsibilities after the mobile phone giant consolidated its buying activity.
