Practice areas
Corporate & Brand
Our front-line sector experience helps clients develop and communicate unique and compelling messaging that tackles the communications challenges in today's fast-paced and competitive markets. Today’s stakeholders are faced with a barrage of information like never before. In brand messaging, reaching an audience is one thing, but seizing attention in a way that creates a lasting rather than fleeting impression is the real differentiator. Corporate reputation sinks or swims on the ability to reach the right audience and translate brand capital and appeal into business and partnerships that yield ROI.
Financial
We advise financial institutions on their communications, brand positioning and reputation management, with a focus on venture capital and private equity firms. We also provide communications support to bridge specific transaction periods, such as for fund raising rounds, M&As and IPOs, from build-up to conclusion. Last but not least, we offer publicly listed companies IR programme support and consultancy, channel management, stakeholder engagement and investor perception studies – all tools geared towards empowering clients to build trust with their investor community.
