From crisis communication to financial storytelling, Matrix PR sets new benchmarks in public relations
Dubai-based boutique agency, Matrix Public Relations, has once again solidified its position as a trailblazer in the GCC communications landscape by winning multiple accolades at the 2024 Middle East Public Relations Association (MEPRA) Awards.
The agency walked away with one of the most sought-after awards - the prestigious Small Agency of the Year title, highlighting its expertise in crafting impactful strategies that help businesses and brands in the region build meaningful connections with their audiences.
The agency team also scooped another three prestigious campaign-specific honors, further underscoring its creative capabilities and strategic expertise in impactful strategies that help businesses and brands in the region build meaningful connections with corporate, brand, and crisis communications.
The MEPRA awards is a coveted platform that shines the spotlight on brilliant campaigning, the region’s best agencies, teams, and communication professionals. The annual event also honors strategic vision, exceptional client servicing, and the region’s best communication campaigns and PR practitioners. The 16th edition of the illustrious awards received over a staggering 770 entries competing for 53 categories and were judged by a distinguished panel of 130 industry leaders and veterans.
Trophy Haul
This year’s awards celebrated the region’s best in public relations, and Matrix PR stood to be counted as a top contender. Among its highly celebrated campaigns was a crisis communications strategy for a leading tech brand that effectively safeguarded the tech leader's reputation during one of its most turbulent periods, helping the company achieve remarkable growth and success. The campaign clinched Gold in the Best Crisis Communications/Issues Management Strategy category.
Matrix PR also demonstrated its versatility and storytelling finesse with "One Zurich Blue Sofa. Countless Dreams," a campaign for Zurich Middle East that earned a Silver in the Financial Services Campaign category. Meanwhile, its Century Financial PR Revolution campaign, which highlighted the critical role of financial literacy in empowering communities and driving societal progress, earned a Bronze for Best Corporate Reputation Campaign.
