Founder and Managing Director of PLMR, Kevin Craig, said: “PLMR is delighted to announce the launch of the GCA. Today is the culmination of several months’ hard work, and we are grateful to the contributions made by all of our partners as we have refined our ideas of what the network should be.
“In the eight years since I founded the business, we’ve been very lucky to have worked with some exceptionally talented agencies around the world, and so it made sense to formalise this relationship by establishing the GCA. We’ve also identified some new partners, who have been recommended to us through trusted friends for their excellence in communications practice within their jurisdiction.
“Communications agencies do not have to be multi-national conglomerates to have a truly global impact. We are looking forward to realising the enormous potential benefits to be had for both agencies and clients from access to native specialists in countries around the world.”
