Keeping up with Made By Giants: February Edition ???
Made By Giants?
Creative communications for the giants of tomorrow. Small Consultancy of the Year 2022 @ PRCA DARE Awards.
Hello there ??
As the recently departed jazz-punk pioneer Roy Ayers famously sang, 'Everybody Loves the Sunshine' - and in February, those rare rays peeking through the clouds were a welcome treat. While many see February as one of the bleakest months of the year, at Made By Giants, it’s been anything but. We've been busy pitching ahead of MWC (look out for our fast approaching blog with key insights ??), and delivering giant results. Here’s what we've been up to:
Meet Jamie ??
Over the past few months, we’ve been lucky to collaborate with @ Jamie Whyte, our new Creative Comms Director. With seven years at Brands2Life and international experience at Edelman in Singapore and London, Jamie brings a wealth of knowledge from working with global tech brands like HP, VMware, SAP, Samsung, and Google Cloud. His creative spirit and leadership skills help guide the Made By Giants team and our client partners to success. Recently, Jamie’s arrival was covered by PRovoke Media here.?
Read more about him (and why he likes to disconnect from time to time)?in this Q&A.
Grace shares her insights on global PR with PR Moment?
With rising protectionism, nationalism and extreme geopolitical volatility, do we need to change our approach to global work? What does this uncertainty mean for global brands and the agency networks working with them? Our co-founder Grace Keeling , takes a step back and looks at how the bigger picture has evolved over the past 12 months.?
Enjoy reading Grace’s thoughts in a digestible PDF - here.?
Sara’s happy 30! ??
We also made sure to congratulate our amazing teammate Sara, surprising her with plenty of humour and lots of birthday love! ????
The Stack meet and greet ??
In February, we had a blast at The Stack 's networking drinks in Soho! Turning our social switch on, we chatted with journalists, connected with PR peers, and enjoyed a few pints over a mix of hilarious and thought-provoking conversations. The room’s heat didn’t slow us down one bit! Big thanks to Edward Targett for organising!?
Our client partners in the news ??
?? Celebrating giant Reuters coverage! ??. As the launch of private credit ETFs disrupts investment access, our client partner Allvue Systems spoke to Reuters about the potential challenges this may bring to the market. Great to see Nathan Eisenberg sharing his insight on liquidity concerns with the journalist Suzanne McGee .
?? Data breaches are costly, with reputational damage hitting hard. In Germany’s leading security publication, Graylog, Inc. explains why robust cybersecurity is crucial to protecting organisations, discussing practical steps like strong access controls and proactive threat assessments. ???
?? It’s a Sinch! In February, our client partner Sinch announced a strategic partnership with Ericsson’s Aduna. Along with the venture’s other developer platform partners, like Vonage (owned by Ericsson) and Google Cloud, the collaboration will drive innovation, scale and operational efficiency for enterprises.
???That’s a wrap, talk to you in a month …
