Momentum Names Omid Farhang Chief Creative Officer
Posted in: Uncategorized
Momentum Worldwide, part of Interpublic’s McCann Worldgroup, has named Omid Farhang its chief creative officer, the company said. He succeeds Jon Hamm, who was named chief creative officer at Geometry Global last month.
Mr. Farhang, who assumes his new post Nov. 10, spent the first few months of 2014 as chief creative officer of Narrative, Russell Simmons and Tricia Clarke-Stone’s entertainment marketing and technology company. Since March he has been a freelance creative director for companies including McCann. He began his career at Crispin Porter & Bogusky and later became a creative executive at Creative Artists Agency.
Mr. Farhang came recommended by McCann Global Creative Chairman Rob Reilly, a former CP&B colleague. “You’ve got to sprinkle in some of the things you know,” Mr. Reilly said. “Some of the proven talents. The confidence I have in these people is that they know the system that I know.”
