International

Chelgate offers a rare level of experience in international markets. Building on our own knowledge and contacts, we have established a carefully selected network of associates in almost every major market in the world. Working with these contacts, we are able to offer our clients all the benefits of a co-ordinated international PR programme, with central billing and quality control, managed by people who truly understand the special requirements of international public relations.

But we never "shoe horn" a client into a tied affiliate or subsidiary. In each market we will select and work with the professionals best suited to a client's particular needs. In some markets this means working with a variety of specialist associates, reflecting the different needs of our clients.

Unlike tied or wholly-owned networks, we don't have to recommend a particular office regardless of skill or specialisation. We recognise that a client needing government relations services may not be best served by a consumer PR specialist, while a financial relations programme may require a different firm again.

Our experience of international markets also means that we have a good understanding of the special needs of overseas firms wishing to do business in the UK and Europe, and today we are managing multinational communications programmes in Europe for both American and Asian companies.
