Grayling cooperates with Oehen PR
Grayling brought the agency Oehen PR on board at the beginning of January. Stephan Oehen, the agency’s founder and owner, has joined the Zurich team as Executive Director, working under the leadership of Managing Director Bettina Gebhardt.
Grayling and Oehen PR entered into a cooperation at the beginning of January 2012. This gives Oehen PR direct access to Grayling's international network and the opportunity to actively utilize it and expand the services of its existing portfolio accordingly. On the other hand, Grayling is strengthening its expertise in the areas of internationally active Swiss SMEs, financial services and public affairs. Oehen PR is moving into the Grayling office at Niederdorfstrasse 88 in Zurich.
"With Stephan Oehen, we can strengthen our expertise in the area of internationally active SMEs", comments Hanning Kempe, CEO Grayling Switzerland and Germany, on the cooperation. "Grayling offers small and medium-sized Swiss companies with international connections ideal conditions for their communication activities. Thanks to Stephan Oehen's network, we can position ourselves even more strongly in this area."
Stephan Oehen has more than 15 years of PR experience and a solid client base. His core competencies include strategic consulting in the core areas of corporate communications, public affairs and crisis communications. Before setting up his own business, Oehen PR Schweiz AG, in 2006, the lawyer and former journalist pursued a classic consulting career and was most recently managing partner at the PR agency Klaus J. Stöhlker AG.
Stephan Oehen is delighted to be part of Grayling: "Grayling is the perfect partner to drive forward the further internationalization of my portfolio. Both my existing clients and Grayling will benefit from the resulting synergies."
