Deprez and Ahmad Launch The360mix in Dubai

Maktoob Research founder Tamara Deprez and marketer Maha Ahmad have set up a full service marcoms agency called The360mix in Dubai.

Deprez began her career at TNS in Amsterdam before working at Motivaction and Ipsos Dubai. She founded Maktoob Research in 2006, and three years later sold the company to Yahoo! which rebranded the company as Yahoo! Maktoob Research. More recently, she worked for full-service MR agency POINT Consultancy, and at media content analysis specialist Saliance Research. Ahmad has a marketing and PR background gained across a wide range of sectors including education, location-based technology, property, IT and legal publishing.

The new firm will offer a variety of services such as market research, media and competitor analysis, branding, social or digital media marketing, PR and event management.

Deprez comments: 'The360mix focuses on 'all things marketing'. Having worked as a contractual marketing consultant for a couple of companies in Dubai, it was certainly the perfect time to start a new venture, along with my business partner, Maha Ahmad.'
