Early 2022, San Francisco Agency was in charge of the media visibility for what was at the time Finland’s largest funding round for a tech startup – RELEX Solutions had secured €500M equity funding from Blackstone.
San Francisco’s team was in charge of the two-language campaign both in domestic and international media field. Together with the RELEX and Blackstone team, San Francisco Agency helped RELEX Solutions to create a winning strategy of how to secure tier 1 media globally to write about their news. San Francisco Agency took care of creation of press releases, pitching them to VIP journalists, and distributing the press releases.
The campaign was a big success with global tier 1 media outlets both in business and retail and supply chain industries, including Bloomberg and Helsingin Sanomat. San Francisco and RELEX continued PR cooperation after the funding announcement.
We were looking for an experienced partner to help us announce our record-breaking 500 million euro funding round – and in San Francisco Agency, we found the perfect fit. San Francisco Agency was super responsive and active, helping us both create a winning strategy and they took care of the operational part of announcing our funding. We got the top-tier media hits we wanted, including two Bloomberg articles. We can recommend San Francisco Agency warmly for anyone planning on goal-driven, global PR work.
