Launched 12 years ago, Luxine is a corporate and consumer boutique PR agency in Montreal with A-List clients and the strategic and creative heft of larger, national agencies.  Veritas first opened its Montreal office a decade ago, however the opportunities in Quebec have far surpassed the size of the existing footprint. Clients and brands have recognized the need for made-in-Quebec strategies for Quebec-based audiences and the acquisition of Luxine will bolster the agency’s ability to meet that demand.

“PR and influencer marketing capabilities, including our self-service tools like PRophet in the Stagwell Marketing Cloud, have been essential to our success in the Canadian market to date,” said Mark Penn, chairman and CEO of Stagwell. “Montreal is an important geography because of its deep technology roots and leading-edge creative talent, so we didn’t hesitate when Webster brought Luxine forward as an acquisition.” 

“Luxine and Dubé bring Stagwell unparalleled market insight and a singular ability to break through and influence outcomes. Quebec consumers are loyal and vocal and the market demands authentically local leaders that live and breathe Quebec,” says Krista Webster, CEO of Veritas, and Meat & Produce. “Dubé will be a key voice at the executive leadership table for the agency overall, not just Quebec.”

In addition to Dubé, her talented team of seasoned PR, influencer and social practitioners have joined the existing Veritas team in Montreal and are already making an enormous impact for national clients. The Veritas Montreal team has moved into Luxine’s premium office space, and the agency will operate under the banner LuxineVeritas, recognizing Luxine’s roots in Quebec and history of excellence in the market.

“I was drawn to Veritas because of Webster’s commitment to ensuring Quebec plays an equal voice in how the agency grows and serves clients. Nurturing Quebec-based clients and delivering our personalized approach to media will continue to be a priority as we enter this next chapter,” said Dubé.

Together, the council will launch a transformative platform to challenge the advertising industry to reinvest in news.

“The Future of News Summit will reframe the conversation by debuting research that illustrates the power of news audiences to drive business and debunks common brand safety myths,” said Stagwell Chairman and CEO Mark Penn. “According to our prior research, 90% of voters think the country should have freedom of the press, and yet news monetization is increasingly under attack. Live at the summit we’ll bring both brand and publisher partners together to discuss ways to navigate this climate and maintain consumer trust.”

Penn will kickoff the program and reveal key findings from the research, followed by two panel discussions featuring journalists and brand leaders who see news as the foundation of a thriving democracy and a critical vehicle for marketing ROI.

Panel I: Being A Journalist Today – Stories from the Field: A moderated conversation about the journalists today who are breaking down barriers, holding truth to power, and shining a light on the issues that matter most- despite the most difficult and dangerous of circumstances, featuring:

Conti also leads the company’s legal efforts to secure the release of WSJ reporter Evan Gershkovich, who has been wrongfully detained in Russia for over a year.
• Jason Rezaian, The Washington Post: Rezaian is a writer for Global Opinions. He served as The Post’s correspondent in Tehran from 2012 to 2016. He spent 544 days unjustly imprisoned by Iranian authorities until his release in January 2016. He is a CNN contributor.
• Megan Twohey, The New York Times: Twohey is an investigative reporter at The New York Times whose work has prompted changes to the law, criminal convictions and cultural shifts. Twohey is most known for being one of the journalists who broke the story of Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein’s long pattern of sexual harassment and abuse, which helped ignite the #MeToo movement and shared in the Pulitzer Prize for Public Service.
• Moderated by Ray Day, Stagwell Vice Chair

Panel II: Why News Works for Brands: Investment in advertising on news platforms is not only brand safe, but also lends itself to a strong return on investment. This session will be an interactive dialogue with business leaders sharing their perspectives on the value of news and how to maximize impact through tailored marketing, featuring:

• Tara Carraro, U.S. Steel: Tara Carraro serves as Senior Vice President and Chief Communications Officer for U. S. Steel where she is responsible for reputation management and communications strategies designed to help deliver on its Best for All® strategy. She also has executive responsibility for Community Relations and non-governmental Stakeholder Engagement.
• Will Doherty, The Trade Desk: Doherty is the Vice President of Inventory Development at The Trade Desk where he oversees strategic partnerships with publishers which includes legacy media, television networks as well as new and emerging channels.

• Dan Gardner, Code and Theory: Gardner is co-founder of the technology-first creative agency Code and Theory and ON_Discourse, a new membership media company focused on the business of technology, prioritizing expert-driven discourse to drive perspectives.
• Shenan Reed, General Motors: Reed is the Global Chief Media Officer at General Motors. She comes to the automaker following three-and-a-half years as SVP, Head of Media at L’Oréal USA and 20+ years of media agency experience.
