Geelmuyden Kiese named agency of the year in Europe

A major recognition of our advisers and clients across the Nordic region.

Geelmuyden Kiese has been named European Consultancy of the Year at the SABRE Awards in London – one of Europe’s most prestigious awards within strategic communications and PR.

The award was given to Geelmuyden Kiese in competition with a number of Europe’s leading agencies and is an important international recognition of the agency’s development and position in the Nordic region. Geelmuyden Kiese is part of the Paritee group, which is present in 12 countries and 16 cities internationally, with Nordic offices in Copenhagen, Oslo and Stockholm.

Recognition of strong Nordic collaboration

Mikkel Salgaard Bendtsen, CEO and partner at Geelmuyden Kiese Denmark, sees the award as an important recognition of the agency’s professional development and collaboration across the Nordic region.

“First and foremost, this is a major recognition of our talented advisers and clients across the Nordic region. Every day, we work to combine strategic advice, an understanding of society and creativity at a level that creates real value for our clients. We are naturally extremely proud that this is now being recognised at a European level” says Mikkel Salgaard Bendtsen.

He also highlights the strength of the Nordic setup and the collaboration with Paritee.

“As part of Paritee, we have strengthened our international reach, sector expertise and creative capacity. This allows us to advise clients even more strongly in complex and regulated industries, where the demands on strategic communications are only increasing” he says.

One of the industry’s most recognised awards

The SABRE Awards are presented by PRovoke Media and are considered among the world’s most recognised awards within PR and strategic communications. The European Consultancy of the Year title is given to the agency that overall has delivered the strongest professional and commercial development in Europe over the past year.

The award was received in London by Jonas Palmqvist, Group CEO of Paritee and Chairman of the Geelmuyden Kiese Group, together with Leif Geiger, Chief Growth Officer at Paritee.
