Communication and creative services

Communication Services

There is a growing demand for the effective communication of policy ideas, goals and achievements, coupled with the requirement for both public and private sectors to “get closer” to stakeholder and client. Response to these demands requires an in-depth understanding of the way in which the Information Society impacts upon people, firms and communities and the expertise to harness the full power of state of the art communications media.

Expertise

Areas of work

We have, in-house, competences and skills in communication strategy and delivery. Our services cover the full range from the provision of “state of the art” website design to press and media campaigns and publishing. We have particular skills in stakeholder communications around Urban Planning and Real Estate issues (‘Communication in Interactive Policymaking’, a method by ECORYS Communication). Our website designs support many major national and internal programmes. We have a major competence in the dissemination and communication of RTD policy at the European scale.
