MADRID, July 02, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- LLYC (BME:LLYC), the global Marketing and Corporate Affairs consultancy, has acquired the remaining 30% stake in Lambert Global, completing its full ownership of the Michigan-based strategic communications firm ahead of schedule. The acquisition follows the successful integration of the initial 70% stake, announced in February 2024, and further strengthens LLYC's position in the United States.
