BPRG elects three new board members - vice president resigns
Three new board members were elected at the online general meeting of the Bern Public Relations Society BPRG on Wednesday. Long-time vice president Barbara Meier stepped down.
For the second time, the BPRG held its general meeting online due to the Corona pandemic. President Nik Eugster reviewed the past year of the association in his annual review. "Communications staff generally like extraordinary situations. For this reason, the last BPRG year was special, but no less exciting," said the BPRG president. A variety of new digital networking events were created.
Those responsible at the BPRG were lucky and at the same time dealt a good hand in postponing the 10th Berner Kommunikationspreis to August 2021. The award ceremony could be held physically in the Bern Casino. Both digital and physical events are again planned for 2022.
Three new board members
With Franzisca Ellenberger from Pipapoo, Célia Rohrer from CSL Behring and Tina Balmer from the Gebäudeversicherung des Kantons Bern GVB, three new members were elected to the board. Barbara Meier, who previously held the vice presidency and had been a member of the BPRG board since 2009, stepped down.

- Benjamin Blaser (Vice President and Webmaster, Newsroom Communication)
