Popovic started his career at BBDO in Germany after which he moved to their Chicago office and then to New York. During his stint with BBDO, Konstantin led brands as diverse as Wrigley, Johnson & Johnson and Best Buy.

Prior to Grey, Popovic was in Publicis New York, where he was the Brand Agency leader for P&G’s Digestive Wellness and PGT (Procter & Gamble Company and Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd.) Healthcare brands. In that role, he led a cross functional team of seven agencies across all marketing disciplines to develop integrated ideas.

“I didn’t hesitate to join Grey given the momentum of the agency and the growth opportunities available in the APAC region. They are second to none in the global healthcare category and I am thrilled to be working alongside some of the brightest talents in the industry. With Grey, I am looking forward to making an even greater impact on GSK’s business,” said Popovic.

Other than his passion for global business, Popovic has always been a digital innovator – from launching a user-generated content (UGC) based campaign three years before YouTube existed to being the global capability lead on Publicis’ real-time marketing engine.

Born in Serbia, raised in Berlin, educated in French schools, and a New Yorker at heart – Konstantin is truly a global citizen.
