PR & Media 2010 Congress
With the current economic uncertainties and crisis, public relations and corporate communication specialists can be thrust into a position of power and become the ultimate point of connection. Although PR and
communication specialists are not always regarded as part of the leadership or C-level team, trouble times can change this! And yes, at the centre of global economic slowdown, the H1NI pandemic, company layoffs,
marketing budget cut, corporate social responsibility and corporate crisis are the PR professionals and corporate communication specialists delivering the news, explaining consequences of possible courses of
action and the impact on bottom line.
PR & Media Congress 2010 delivers changing strategies for challenging times. It will provide navigation and proven techniques that can help you grab your shareholders’, leaders’ and investors’ attention before, during and
after an event and crisis.
PRM 2010 is the time for you, PR professionals and corporate communication specialists to share challenges, solutions, ideas and reassess the true meaning and function of PR and media in your organisation.
Whether you are new to PR, Media, Corporate Branding, Investors Relations, Corporate Communication or a veteran practitioner, PRM 2010 has a strong commitment to the interests of its attendees.
Congress Date: 26-27 January 2010
Pre-Congress Masterclass: 25 January 2010 l Post-Congress Masterclass: 28 January 2010
