We support Nicola Spirig, Daniela Ryf, Sina Frei, Marlen Reusser, Max Studer, David Habluetzel and Nevin Galmarini. Furthermore, we supported Jolanda Neff, Viktor Roethlin, Patrick Fischer, Alan Roura and Patrik Waegeli. More on our former mandates >>

  • Strategy development and structural organisation
  • Definition and placement of key wordings and messages
  • Rapid, proactive response management
  • Media coaching

Our keys: direct, open, honest.

Public & Media Relations

Those in the public eye want to be perceived positively; messages are to reach their destination. We prepare our clients by means of media training and support them with our strong media contacts.

  • Positioning - conception, strategy and implementation
  • Media coaching, incl. on-camera training
  • Media relations / management of media enquiries
  • Creation and distribution of media releases
  • Organization and moderation of media conferences

Our aim: professional interaction with media professionals.

Presenting

Live performances are a unique challenge. Presenting a gala, leading through an anniversary or hosting a panel discussion, we hit the right key at each event and approach it with a sense of humour and a touch of charm.

  • Multilingual and on-point
  • Humorous and charming
  • In tune with the event’s or audience’s nature
  • Empathetic and sincere

Our approach: multilingual, dramaturgically trained, stylistically on point.
