FleishmanHillard wins at SABRE Awards

The 13th EMEA SABRE Awards has announced FleishmanHillard as the Middle East PR Consultancy of the Year. The awards ceremony, which took place on May 23, 2017, recognises Superior Achievement in Branding Reputation & Engagement.

“In a disruptive and very competitive communications landscape, agencies are having to evolve just as fast to keep up with the pace of change,” says Jim Donaldson, Senior Partner, Regional Director, FleishmanHillard EMEA. “I am very proud of the team’s achievements in such a prolific region and their many successes in growing the business and identifying new opportunities. Our Middle East business is split evenly between local client work and international business, meaning that we have grown truly local roots, but have become an indispensable partner to several of the firm’s global clients.”
