Havas Group announces the launch of multi-award-winning entertainment communications agency, Organic into the Asia Pacific market – ‘Organic Pacific’.
The office located at Havas Village Australia’s (Host/Havas, Havas Media, Red Havas and One Green Bean) Sydney base, joins Organic’s established European headquarters in Kings Cross, London and its North American hub located in Los Angeles, California, to bring Organic’s innovative approach to publicity and social media to content creators and distributors in film, television and gaming across Australia and New Zealand.
The new arm makes Organic the first specialist entertainment communications agency to offer services across Europe, North America and Asia Pacific, cementing the agency’s position as a global leader in all areas of film, television and gaming publicity and social media.

Organic Pacific will be led by Annabelle Gigliotti (pictured), formerly of Roadshow Films, who will sit under Caragh Cook, Organic’s managing director based in Organic’s London HQ.
Gigliotti will work closely with managing partner Tristan Woods-Scawen and Global SVP Langsdale to deliver an interconnected approach across all three continents and a truly integrated strategy for Organic’s clients.
