What EPOKA does

Agence Mantu is a Paris-headquartered B2B communications and strategy consultancy serving large enterprises, including CAC 40 and global corporations. The agency organizes its offering around a four-stage model — Think (strategy, brand, employer brand, B2B marketing, corporate and financial communication), Build (brand identity, content systems, digital platforms, design, AI and immersive tech), Feel (events, experience design, VR training), and Amplify (advocacy, PR, public affairs, reputation, crisis communications) — designed to maintain continuity from strategic decision to deployed execution.

The agency's core technology layer is an AI-augmented creative production stack that uses generative AI for content production, dedicated GPTs for personalized employee experiences, and AI-generated visuals in campaigns. Service delivery is supported by ~200 professionals consolidated from previously independent specialist agencies (Arneo, Revibe, Novelab, .Becoming), with offices in Paris, Lille, Marseille, Geneva, and Barcelona.

Revenue is generated through project-based professional services engagements (no disclosed pricing) with enterprise clients across luxury/beauty, pharma/life sciences, finance/insurance, transport/logistics, energy, retail/FMCG, and tech/consulting verticals. Named clients include L'Oréal, Sanofi, SCOR, DOMITYS, Givaudan, Maserati, Le Tanneur, Crédit Mutuel, CMA CGM, NAOS, Zeendoc, and other major French and European brands. The agency is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Mantu group (€1B group revenue, 12,000 employees, 60+ countries, 2025), which provides delivery scale and geographic reach beyond the agency's own footprint.

• Ogilvy Paris: Ogilvy Paris is the French office of WPP's Ogilvy network, providing advertising, PR, and consulting for major French and global brands.
