"Convincing communication is created where strategy, creativity and content work together. Compresso combines these skills in a convincing way. I am therefore looking forward to supporting the results-oriented team with my experience from an agency and media perspective in its further development as a communications agency," says Roger Rüegger.

The Zurich-based communications agency Compresso has set itself a clear goal: to be the favorite agency of its clients and all its employees. To achieve this, around 25 experts put their heart and soul into developing solutions in the areas of public relations, brand activation, events, campaigns and digital.
