(Courtesy of CPS and HeraldPR) Miami-headquartered Converge Public Strategies and New York-headquartered HeraldPR have announced that HeraldPR is now operating as part of the Converge Public Strategies brand.
The incorporation of HeraldPR’s personnel will boost Converge Public Strategies’ broader suite of corporate communications services. In addition to bolstering the firm’s mainstay capabilities in issue advocacy, the combined communications division will offer a more robust suite of public relations services to clients in sectors such as technology, healthcare, insurance, transportation, hospitality, luxury, professional services and beauty.
HeraldPR’s deep experience and lengthy list of clients include the Gansevoort Hotel Group, beverage giant Diageo, Le Marais Steakhouse, Israel’s Foreign and Tourism Ministries, World Likud, attorneys Alan Dershowitz and Duncan Levin, and companies such as New York City entertainment property Broadway Stages, Surface Media, Dujour Media Group, TransPerfect Global, The Glimpse Group, MyndVR and Alerion Aviation.
Warren Cohn, founder and CEO of HeraldPR, said: “The opportunity to join with Converge was a win-win. No public affairs firm in the country matches their momentum. It’s a merger of HeraldPR’s public relations and communications talents with Converge’s growth trajectory nationwide and hard-won client trust.”
Under the combined brand, Cohn and Herald President Juda Engelmayer will serve as co-directors of Converge Public Strategies’ expanded communications division. Engelmayer will lead crisis and corporate communications, having worked with and built a powerhouse roster of clients across the globe.
Jonathan Kilman, founder and chairman of Converge Public Strategies noted: “HeraldPR’s move into Miami was a stroke of luck for all of us. Converge was looking to take its communications division to the next level, and you can’t get better than HeraldPR—their track record of success and ‘who’s who’ client list speak for themselves. We can now offer world-class communications services to our clients nationwide and beyond.”
