Bastion, the UK's powerhouse in PR and communications, is making waves across the pond! In a bold move, they've established a North American branch, led by industry veteran Rebekah Nicodemus, to cater to the gaming sector. But why stop at borders when you've been dominating the industry for three decades?
A New Frontier for Bastion
Bastion has been a trusted name in the UK since 1992, and their latest venture is a testament to their ambition. Nicodemus, formerly the communications lead at Amazon Web Services and Head of Product Communications at Amazon Games, brings a wealth of experience to the table. And she's no stranger to the gaming world, having managed accounts like Blizzard Entertainment during her tenure at Grayling.
Expanding Horizons, Expanding Teams
Bastion America is wasting no time in building its team, actively seeking account managers and executives. And they're hitting the ground running with Amazon Game Studios as their inaugural client. But here's where it gets intriguing—they hint at other potential partnerships, keeping us on the edge of our seats!
Nicodemus, reflecting on her time as a client, praised Bastion's strategic thinking and problem-solving skills. Now, as she takes the helm of Bastion America, she aims to replicate this success, leveraging the agency's global network to deliver exceptional results.
Managing Director Ravi Vijh echoes this sentiment, highlighting Nicodemus' drive and compatibility with Bastion's client-centric ethos. With her agency expertise, she's poised to propel Bastion America towards new heights.
Services Tailored for Impact
Bastion America's offerings are comprehensive, encompassing strategic counsel, media and influencer relations, social engagement, corporate and crisis communications, and marketing consultancy. A full suite of services designed to navigate the dynamic gaming industry.
