Serviceplan Group Italia

What Serviceplan Group Italia does

Serviceplan Group Italia is the Italian operating unit of the Serviceplan Group's House of Communication, founded in 2012 and headquartered in Milan. The company operates a multi-brand integrated agency structure consisting of four core brands: Serviceplan (creativity and content), Mediaplus (media and data), Plan.Net (digital experience and technology), and Make (production and realisation), plus the TWELVE Mail publication brand. Its underlying capability is anchored by the proprietary ÜberCreativity methodology, which integrates strategy, creative, and content development across ATL, BTL, digital, and social channels for multi-channel communication campaigns.

The company serves enterprise clients across diverse verticals including retail (MediaWorld, MediaMarktSaturn, Pinalli), food and beverage (Bialetti, Jägermeister, Paulaner, De Matteis, Consorzio del Grana Padano DOP), automotive (BMW), entertainment (UCI Cinemas), insurance (Unipol), fashion (Humana), media (Il Sole 24 Ore), and non-profit (ActionAid).

The agency employs 56 experts and delivers services through dedicated account teams within the House of Communication model.

Go-to-market is enterprise-focused B2B with custom pricing based on project scope, service requirements, and client size — no public pricing exists. Revenue mechanics follow professional services across three core streams: Creative & Content Services, Media & Data Services (via Mediaplus), and Digital Experience & Technology (via Plan.Net). Recent strategic moves include the 2026-02 global creative AI partnership with Luma AI and the 2026-06 MediaWorld/MediaMarktSaturn Creative Solutions Partner appointment covering Europe. The agency was recognized as Independent Network and Independent Agency of the Year at Cannes Lions 2025.
