Republica Havas announced the expansion of its capabilities and services with the launch of Havas House, a global custom media, content, and publishing division. Based in Miami, Florida, and led by seasoned media executive Marisa Beazel as president, Havas House will work with brands worldwide and will also collaborate with Havas network agencies and their clients in the specialized area of custom owned media and content.

Most recently, Beazel was president and publisher of HCP Media. Several members of the HCP leadership team have also joined Havas House, adding to its breadth, experience, and potential.

Plasencia, co-founder, chairman, and CEO of Republica Havas. “Marisa and her award-winning team are regarded as some of the best at their craft, and we’re thrilled to have them join our family,” he added.

Havas House services advance Havas’ global strategic ambition to build a first-class creative network that delivers content through modern platforms. The new division will manage all aspects of custom and owned media, content, publishing, and marketing initiatives, from concept development and content curation to photography, design, editing, and print management. Havas House seamlessly blends with Havas’ vast array of creative, digital, social marketing, media, public relations, experiential, and other services.
