IMS Marketing Is Now LOCOMOTIVE Agency
IMS Marketing joined LOCOMOTIVE Agency in 2023, strengthening our ability to deliver high-impact marketing strategies while keeping the same trusted local team and client experience you’ve come to expect.
The Irish team remains unchanged, including IMS founder Kevin Moran, who continues to lead the business. That means you’ll still collaborate with the same specialists, receive the same strategic guidance, and benefit from our deep understanding of Ireland’s marketing grant and funding landscape.
The same team. The same strategic focus.
Now backed by greater capability and global reach.
