BUILDING ON ESTABLISHED SUCCESS:
We are building on the great work already underway by Business South’s existing action groups, which cover vital areas such as Maritime & Transport, Regeneration, People, and Energy, Utilities & Sustainability. These groups are doing excellent work, driving progress, and addressing specific sector needs. Our Public Affairs Group will focus on leveraging all this valuable collaborative effort, translating it into actionable insights for government. Our key objective is to consolidate these diverse initiatives into a clear, powerful message, ensuring the collective voice of business is heard where it counts most.
SHAPING OUR FUTURE: A NEW FRONTIER
I offered to chair the group, and it is now a reality.
At Marengo Communications, we are at the forefront of strategic communications. My own involvement in politics began exceptionally early – my mother was campaigning for better maternity services when she was pregnant with me, and it just went on from there. For the past two decades, I have honed my skills in political communications, working both for politicians and, more recently, advocating for clients, ensuring their messages reach decision-makers across all levels of government.
OUR KEY OBJECTIVE IS TO CONSOLIDATE THESE DIVERSE INITIATIVES INTO A CLEAR, POWERFUL MESSAGE
