Technology is part of our DNA, which we believe is a tremendous strength that's increasingly critical for reaching today's consumers online and on the go."

Among its clients are Danone, Jack Daniel's, Prada, Barceló Hotels & Resorts, Bacardi, Pullmantur Cruises and Nespresso. Pullmantur Cruises and Nespresso.
While BeRepublic researched other international networks, they felt MAGNET provided the best complement to their firm.
