KUALA LUMPUR: Olympic chiefs must pump more content to mobile devices, and extend the allure of the Games outside its 17-day window to stay relevant to young people, marketing guru Martin Sorrell said. 

"You need to evolve to new consumption behaviours in both younger demographics and in fast-growth markets, more online and more mobile," the founder and CEO of marketing communications group, WPP, told International Olympic Committee members.
