Ciarán Coyle is bringing his deep experience in the brand licensing industry to a new and critical role at LMCA, as President and COO of one of the world’s top licensing firms.
“Ciarán is exceptionally well suited to build upon and grow LMCA’s leadership role in corporate brand extension licensing, and we are excited to have him aboard,” said Allan Feldman, founder and CEO at LMCA.
Coyle last worked with Electrolux, where he worked as the Global VP and Head of Brand Licensing, and is credited with growing the electronic giant’s corporate brand licensing program around the world. Prior to that position Coyle worked with Beanstalk for 11 years, most recently as the President for the Europe and Asia Pacific regions. At the time he was based in the company’s London, UK office, working with major brands like AEG, Frigidaire, Harley Davidson, Jack Daniels, Jaguar and Land Rover, and Proctor and Gamble, among others.
Coyle has also served on the board of the industry trade body, Licensing International, with two of those as chairman.
In his new role, Coyle says his priority is to lead LMCA into new growth areas. “I am truly excited to lead LMCA into a new period of growth with an expanded team, global footprint and some very exciting new engagements,” Coyle said. “It is refreshing to see the agency’s commitment to developing meaningful, purposeful programs that not just add to our client’s bottom line but support their deeply-rooted missions.”
