Hyundai has appointed VCCP Singapore to lead its social strategy, content and community management for Hyundai Motor Group Innovation Center Singapore (HMGICS). The appointment was made in December 2022 and is for a year, a spokesperson told MARKETING-INTERACTIVE. The appointment came following a pitch.
