With these additions, CCNE further strengthens its presence across the Baltics, Nordics, and Central and Eastern Europe.
Based in Helsinki, Brunnen Communications is a Finnish strategic communication agency specializing in construction, energy, and technology sectors, as well as in non-profits. “We feel privileged to become part of a strong European network. We are happy to bring a Nordic perspective and broad experience of difficult crisis communication situations to the CCNE. Due to the geopolitical situation in Europe, our clients are increasingly requesting cross-border crisis comms consulting support, and the CCNE is a solution for them”, states Taru Nikulainen, Managing Director at Brunnen Communications.
Based in Ljubljana, Taktik is one of Slovenia’s leading specialized communication agencies, offering extensive expertise across sectors including finance and banking, transport and logistics, infrastructure, ICT, healthcare, pharmaceuticals, public administration, and NGOs. “We are pleased to join a network that has been steadily gaining momentum,” said Matjaž Klipšteter from Taktik. “In an increasingly complex and high-risk world, the importance of CCNE continues to grow. For agencies like ours, collaboration and knowledge-sharing across borders are crucial to providing clients with the best possible support.”
Based in Riga, Ojārs Stūre is an independent crisis management consultant and trainer who will represent Latvia. “Crises reveal how connected we really are. Through the CCNE, I’ll work to ensure that organizations in Latvia can learn from Europe’s best, and that our own insights contribute to the continent’s collective preparedness”, Ojārs Stūre says.
