These new appointments will build on KISS PR’s digital expertise. The six-strong team has recently achieved significant growth in its portfolio. Justine Smith, Managing Director at KISS PR, commented: “KISS PR continues to strengthen and diversify its profile, and as our business grows we are appointing new talent to enhance and develop our team.”
Recent new clients include the Behavioural Health Research Unit of the University of Cambridge, which examines the health impacts of lifestyle choices, Cork-based Precision Biotics, Internet of Things innovator, Intamac and Pizza Hut Delivery. The agency has also been appointed to provide PR support to the Innovation Forum’s networking event, Innovation Leaders Conference, held this month at the Cambridge Judge Business School.
