History
Spafax was founded in London in 1985.[1][2]
In September 2000, WPP announced that it had acquired Spafax Airline Network Limited from Pensa Ltd. WPP described the business at the time as an international provider of in-flight entertainment content.[3]
In 2016, Spafax Content Marketing Americas and Forward Worldwide were merged to form Bookmark Content and Communications, a WPP-owned content and communications business within the wider Spafax group structure.[4]
In 2019, Campaign reported that Spafax was among the subsidiaries housed under WPP's Tenthavenue division before that brand was retired as part of a restructuring. The report said the agencies themselves were unaffected by the change.[5]
