Network Advertising has been one of those agencies that has a great legacy but has not managed to sweat its equity. The jury was of the opinion that what was once a great agency with strong clients like Thomas Cook, Jet Airways, BBC, has none of these accounts in its treasure chest anymore. In 2011, though the agency won a few businesses, they did not match up to what the agency used to handle a few years ago. In terms of people movement, Nilesh Vaidya, who was with Euro RSCG, moved back to the agency as ECD.
