Middle East Communications Network (MCN) has announced a major expansion of its data capabilities and platform services across the MENAT region through Acxiom, part of IPG. This expansion strengthens the value proposition for brands seeking advanced personalisation and measurable business results.
Building on its established presence, Acxiom, a global leader in customer data management and marketing technology, is now enhancing and powering MCN’s comprehensive data, performance, and technology offerings across MENAT. Acxiom helps brands to unify, connect, and prepare data for AI-driven marketing and decision-making, maximising technology investments. Its globally adopted technology will now be more accessible to MENAT clients, driving enhanced audience segmentation, campaign performance, and multi-channel activation.
As part of this expansion, Acxiom will serve as the data foundation for Interact, the global end-to-end connected platform launched in the region earlier this year. Interact unifies data, creative production, media, and commerce – enabling real-time, AI-powered collaboration and personalised communications at scale.
The platform is designed to transform how brands engage audiences across all touchpoints, accelerating speed, efficiency, and business impact through intelligent and connected marketing ecosystems.
“The MENAT region is at a pivotal moment of data-led transformation, presenting significant and unique opportunities for brands. With Acxiom’s expansion into the region, we’re super-charging our world-class data and technology capabilities — enabling clients to drive smarter audience targeting, elevate campaign performance, and achieve measurable business growth. Acxiom will further help brands to unlock the full potential of data to lead in an increasingly connected and competitive marketplace.” – Ghassan Harfouche, CEO of MCN MENAT.
As the MENAT region becomes increasingly diverse and data-rich, Acxiom’s integration with Interact creates the insights that power dynamic, personalised customer experiences that deliver greater efficiency, stronger loyalty, and higher ROI. Acxiom’s integration with Interact:

By leveraging Acxiom’s capabilities, we enable our clients to accelerate their data maturity and deliver smarter, more personalised marketing that drives measurable impact.” – Karthik Kumar, Managing Director Acxiom MENAT
The expanded MENAT team brings together specialists in technology, marketing, data science, and consulting to drive business transformation through digital solutions. Their diverse expertise supports end-to-end delivery across Technology Strategy & Advisory, Digital Transformation, MarTech, Platform Integration, Advanced Analytics, and AI & Machine Learning. This expansion reinforces MCN’s and Acxiom’s strategic partnerships with industry-leading technology providers, including Google, Salesforce, The Trade Desk, and Snowflake.
“At Acxiom, we’re driven to solve the most complex data challenges wherever they exist. Our expansion into the MENAT region is not just about supporting our clients’ global ambitions, but also about contributing to the region’s vibrant, data-driven future.
