“The West of England is now on the global business radar screen”

Businesses in the USA, Europe, Asia, and Australia are looking for a PR presence in the West of England.

This is revealed by the visitor analysis of the new website for a leading West PR consultancy, focused on serving corporate, business, and professional clients.

Since launching their new website in July, Sturgess Van Damme Public Relations has recorded more than 2,000 visitors, with 12 per cent from the USA. While international visitors have spanned the globe, Germany, Poland, China, and Australia (at 2 per cent each) have been among the most frequent visitors.

According to Sturgess Van Damme director, Neil Fraser: “Our new website was designed to serve clients and journalists in the UK, so we are delighted by the high level of overseas visitors.

“We have a strong history of working with international clients in the USA, Brussels, India, and Romania. But the number of overseas visitors to our new website underlines that the West of England is increasingly appearing on the radar screen for global business”, said Mr Fraser.

While SVD‘s clients include such major UK corporate names as Cardiff International Airport, Deloitte, King Sturge, Lloyds TSB Corporate, and the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, the West PR firm has worked for British Airways, Alamo Rent-a-Car, the Confederation of European Cigarette Manufacturers, the Romanian Prime Minister, and the Indo-British Prime Ministers‘ Trade Initiative.

“We have link offices in Brussels and the USA, and connections throughout the world”, said Neil Fraser.

“We have also been instrumental in developing business links for the West of England with Boston and the Pacific North West in the USA”, he added.
