Samia Bouazza, CEO of Multiply Group said, “We have formed a strong relationship with Viola Communications after merging its operations with Multiply Marketing Consultancy. The ecosystem we have created within Multiply Group is an exciting proposition for the region’s media and digital marketing landscape”.
