Freicom opens new consulting division

On November 1, 2008, the Freicom Group will launch the Freicom Consulting division, which will focus on association management, strategic consulting, and public relations. Roger Tinner will take over as managing director of the new division. Starting next month, the Freicom Group will thus be built on three pillars: Freicom Communications, Freicom Projects, and Freicom Consulting.

The Freicom Group is opening the Freicom Consulting division for association management, strategy consulting and journalistic activities on November 1, 2008. The Freicom Group announced on Monday that a new business area has been accentuated with special mandates, which will now be incorporated into a new division. For example, the communications agency worked for the management of Swissfundraising and Wirtschaft Region St.Gallen (WISG) as well as the management of the 2011 Federal Music Festival in St. Gallen.
From next month, the Freicom Group will thus be based on three pillars: Freicom Communications (with branches in St. Gallen, Zurich, Chur and Widnau), Freicom Projects (based in St.Gallen) and Freicom Consulting. The former Managing Director of Freicom Communications, Roger Tinner, will become the owner and Managing Director of Freicom Consulting. Reinhard Frei, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Freicom and Managing Director of Freicom Projects, will also take over the management of Freicom Communications on an ad interim basis until new management is appointed. Marc Reinhardt and Reto Küng will form the management of Freicom Communications together with Frei.
The management of the Zurich branch is also being replaced. Following the interim management by Reinhard Frei, Freicom Zurich will be managed by André Glauser from November 1. In this function, the marketing specialist will strengthen the management of Freicom Communications. Glauser is moving to Freicom together with his colleague Joy Wildbolz and the customers and clients of his previous agency Markenplan.
