Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia — TEAM LEWIS has appointed Daniel Wong as Director of Malaysia as the global marketing agency strengthens its leadership team to support business growth and expand its capabilities across the region.

Wong joins the agency from DNA Creative Communications and will oversee the strategic direction, commercial growth and day-to-day operations of TEAM LEWIS Malaysia.

In his new role, he will focus on strengthening the agency’s position in the market, deepening client relationships, expanding integrated services and building high-performing teams.

The appointment comes as TEAM LEWIS continues to invest in its Malaysian business, which remains an important market within its Asia Pacific operations.

“We are thrilled to welcome Daniel to head our operations in Malaysia,” said Keso Kendall, Senior Vice President at TEAM LEWIS. “His deep industry expertise and dedication to team development make him a great addition to the team as we continue to scale in the market. Adding Daniel to the team shows our continued focus and investment in the Malaysia market.” 

Wong brings extensive experience in communications and agency leadership, having worked across strategy, operations and client management throughout his career.

Commenting on his appointment, Wong shared, “I am excited to join the TEAM LEWIS Malaysia business at such an important stage of its journey. My focus is clear – to help build a strong operation that raises the standard of work we deliver and creates greater opportunities for our people and clients.”

“By investing in our teams, sharpening our capabilities and building on the  strong foundation already in place, I look forward to accelerating the agency’s growth and taking TEAM LEWIS Malaysia into its next chapter,” concluded Wong.

Alongside Wong’s appointment, Ann Chong will take on an expanded regional role as Managing Director AI & Client Solutions for APAC, where she is responsible for leading client solutions and oversee the expansion of the agency’s AI capabilities and proprietary Sidekick services across Asia Pacific.

Her responsibilities will include working with regional teams to develop AI-led strategies and tailor solutions that help clients achieve their business objectives.

The leadership changes reflect TEAM LEWIS’ dual focus on strengthening local market leadership while accelerating the adoption of AI-driven services across the region.

By combining Wong’s local leadership with Chong’s expanded regional remit, TEAM LEWIS aims to support its next phase of growth in Malaysia and across Asia Pacific.
