Mavens of London Expands to US and LatAm

Digital research consultancy Mavens of London is opening a US headquarters in San Diego, California, and a Latin American base in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

Founded in 2009, Mavens uses a combination of research and data-driven measurement to drive search engine marketing, social media, communications and product strategies online. The firm's specialities include search optimisation and measurement, social media design and implementation, online data mining, aggregation, and brand monitoring; as well as the development of user-driven web services.

The new offices will be managed by US Chief Strategy Officer Amanda Valle, who joined in 2013 from search marketing agency Covario; and Latin American Chief Strategy Officer Carol Lara, who previously worked in the ad agency and digital marketing sectors in Brazil. Founder Ben Bose comments: 'Mavens has always worked with global brands. This move is part of our commitment to providing our clients with exceptional service - wherever they are.'
