External affairs

Integrated sustainability public affairs and communication campaigns. Cut through the noise to reach key audiences through corporate comms, policy, investor relations and regulatory scanning.

Companies must be more transparent with their stakeholders, and seek systemic policy, regulatory and normative change through partnerships and collaborations.
We provide integrated sustainability public affairs and communications campaigns, developing original thinking to help organisations craft their message and cut through the noise to reach their key audiences. We understand the corporate comms, policy and regulatory landscape that businesses are operating in, supporting businesses to deliver proactive and reactive engagement where required.

Typical challenges include

  • Corporate climate advocacy is growing louder and becoming more consistent
  • The ‘asks’ of business from a sustainability perspective are growing, with external stakeholders increasingly holding businesses to account
  • There is greater demand for transparency and collaboration with all external audiences
