During his tenure at Quantum, Stu led the development of some of the more memorable DTC campaigns of this era for brands such as Claritin, Clarinex, Levitra, NuvaRing, and Crestor.&nbsp; In 2005, Stu continued his development as a pharmaceutical marketer, and made the jump to the professional side to become CEO of KPR. Stu returned to IPG and the DTC world in 2007 as President of Lowe Alchemy, and became IPG\u2019s COO of the Janssen consolidation of its business at IPG in late 2008.<\/p>\n<p>In mid-2012, Stu expanded his Janssen responsibilities by adding operational oversight of J&amp;J\u2019s Vision business.&nbsp; In this role, Stu is responsible for the oversight of IPG\u2019s J&amp;J businesses, ensuring the delivery of \u201cOpen Architecture\u201d to J&amp;J, the model that ensures that optimal talent from across IPG will be brought to J&amp;J regardless of agency affiliation.&nbsp; Over the past 9+ years, nearly 40 different IPG agencies have worked on behalf of Janssen and JJV, more than tripling the number prior to the consolidation. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Stu lives in Maplewood, NJ with his wife Amy and the youngest of his four children, Ryder (16), with Jackson, (25) living in Brooklyn (and continuing in the Klein family advertising tradition), with his brother Hunter (23) as his roommate, and Georgia (21) mid-way through her senior year of college.&nbsp;\n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div> \n\t<\/div> \n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Healthcare Practice Lead,<br \/>IPG<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":309,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-233","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-speaker"],"featured_image_src":"https:\/\/events.theadclub.org\/vitalsigns2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2018\/01\/stuart-klein-video2.jpg","featured_image_src_square":"https:\/\/events.theadclub.org\/vitalsigns2018\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/56\/2018\/01\/stuart-klein-video2.jpg","author_info":{"display_name":"The Ad Club","author_link":"https:\/\/events.theadclub.org\/vitalsigns2018\/author\/theadclub\/"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/events.theadclub.org\/vitalsigns2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/233","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/events.theadclub.org\/vitalsigns2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/events.theadclub.org\/vitalsigns2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/events.theadclub.org\/vitalsigns2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/events.theadclub.org\/vitalsigns2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=233"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/events.theadclub.org\/vitalsigns2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/233\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/events.theadclub.org\/vitalsigns2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/309"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/events.theadclub.org\/vitalsigns2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=233"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/events.theadclub.org\/vitalsigns2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=233"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/events.theadclub.org\/vitalsigns2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=233"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
