Worldcom PR Group EMEA extends its client support with its first South African partner Lange 360

Lange 360, one of the most influential PR and communication consultancies in South Africa, has been elected as the new partner of the Worldcom Public Relations Group, the world’s leading network of independently owned public relations firms.

“Lange 360 has joined the Worldcom PR Group because the ‘new normal’ in communications requires global insights and the global brands we work with will benefit from us being part of a group of like-minded independently owned companies who service best-of-breed clients across a variety of industries worldwide,” said Ruth Golembo, Managing Director at Lange 360.

Lange 360 joined Worldcom in April after going through a selection process and accomplishing the quality standards required to form part of the network.

“We are very happy to welcome our new partner in South Africa and extend our network’s reach across the EMEA region. Lange’s proven experience in PR will surely guarantee interesting future collaborations,” said Corinna Voss, Worldcom PR Group EMEA Chair.

In Autumn, Worldcom EMEA will have its annual meeting in South Africa, where Lange 360 will play a significant role.

In previous years, the Worldcom PR Group has shown significant growth in EMEA with the addition of new partners in Sweden, Turkey, Egypt, Lebanon, the Netherlands, Belgium, Finland and the UK. Lange 360 is the first South African addition to the network.
