Web Summit, Europe’s largest tech conference, has retained 33Seconds as its UK media relations agency for a third year in a row.

Web Summit is a global tech conference hosted annually in Dublin. It was founded in 2010 by Paddy Cosgrave and co-founders Daire Hickey and David Kelly.

In 2014, more than 22,000 attendees from over 100 countries flew to Dublin for Web Summit. Speakers have included the founders and CEOs of Twitter, YouTube, Netflix, Skype, Tesla, PayPal and Oculus VR.

This year’s Web Summit will take place from 3 to 5 November, and speakers will include Facebook's EMEA VP, Nicola Mendelhson, Tinder co-founder and president Sean Rad, Pixar president Ed Catmull and Twitter's chief media scientist, Deb Roy.

33 Seconds has been briefed to ensure a high press turnout at the event and will act as the first point of call for UK journalists.

Mike Harvey, Web Summit’s head of strategic comms, said: “We recognised the support 33Seconds has provided in the previous two years working with the Summit, so it was a straightforward choice to reappoint them to help us again this year.

“In four years, Web Summit has grown from 400 to 22,000 attendees and we’ve already announced the first tech superstar speakers. We think the cream of the UK’s media should be in attendance and 33Seconds will make this happen for us.”

Alice Regester, CEO and co-founder of 33Seconds, said: “We’re extremely proud to be working with the Web Summit team again. As one of the most well respected and anticipated tech events in the world, it’s a privilege to play a key role in its continued rapid growth.”

Wearable fitness company MOOV has chosen consumer tech PR and social media agency Ranieri to handle its UK launch and ongoing PR activity.

MOOV was founded in 2013 by Nikola Hu, Meng Li and Tony Yuan, who have collectively worked for a range of businesses including Apple, Microsoft, Bungie Studio (Halo/Destiny games), Alibaba, DraftFCB and Nokia.

Billed as the “Siri of Sweat” when it launched the "world’s first next generation" fitness tracker wrist and ankle band in 2014, MOOV smashed crowdfunding records by attracting $1 million in backing in two weeks.

The new product, MOOV NOW, will track activity and performance while exercising and provide real-time audio and visual guidance on a range of fitness activities.

Ranieri has been briefed to increase awareness of MOOV and promote the launch of MOOV NOW to the UK market.

Activity will include a reviews programme that will target lifestyle, tech and health and fitness media.

Pietro Ranieri, MD at Ranieri, added: “We’re excited to be working with MOOV, a company with a great story of innovation in the wearables market.

The North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) has awarded a five year framework agreement to global marketing and comms firm Engine Group in partnership with US-based public affairs and comms agency Agenda, following a competitive pitch.

In effect, Agenda and Engine have been appointed as the agencies of choice for NATO and expect to receive their first brief from the organisation in a few weeks.

Headquartered in Brussels, NATO was founded through the 1949 North Atlantic Treaty in response to the threat posed by the Soviet Union. Its aim was also to curb the revival of nationalist militarism in Europe through a strong North American presence on the continent, and encourage European political integration. It currently counts 28 countries as members.

Agenda partnered with Engine Group, which includes PR agencies MHP and Mischief, due to its integrated offer. As it is a framework agreement the team will assess each brief as it comes in and deploy the most appropriate Engine agency.

Engine Group and Agenda will provide a range of comms services for NATO across its 28 member states and beyond. Activity will include strategic comms advice, assessment and evaluation, design, branding and advertising, marketing and PR, broadcast video, digital and social media.

Doug Turner, founding partner of Agenda, said: “This was a long and highly competitive process and we are honored to have the chance to do important work for such a storied institution, and equally pleased to be partnered with Engine on this effort.

“All of us at Agenda and Engine are looking forward to working with NATO over the coming years. There is no greater challenge, and reward, than helping the Alliance deal with a new generation of security threats.

Simon Peck, group MD of Engine UK, said: “Engine is delighted to be working with Agenda to deliver advice and support to NATO. We are excited to be working with such an illustrious and important institution, as it tackles some of the most fascinating challenges of our time.”

NATO promotes democratic values and encourages consultation and cooperation on defence and security issues to build trust and, in the long run, prevent conflict. If diplomatic efforts fail, it has the military capacity required to undertake crisis-management operations.

Tin Man has been handed a PR brief by StreetLink which claims to be the UK’s only website, mobile app and phone-line allowing the public to send an alert to local support services when they see someone sleeping rough.

StreetLink, which is funded by grants from the Department for Communities and Local Government and the Greater London Authority, offers the public a means to act when they see someone sleeping rough. Initial activity will specifically support StreetLink in advance of World Homeless Day on 10 October.

Launched in 2012, the charity is promoted as the first step someone can take to ensure rough sleepers are connected to the local services and support available to them. The Combined Homelessness and Information Network reports, between 1 April and 30 June, 11% more people slept rough in London than during the same period in 2014.

Tin Man will provide a creative multi-channel campaign to increase brand awareness, inspire public action and ensure more people are connected with the help they need when faced with homelessness.

Stephen Holland, comms officer for StreetLink, said: “The Tin Man team really got under the skin of our brief. We were looking for a creative response that would deliver impact but not sensationalise the sensitive subject area. They found the right balance and we are very excited to be working with them on this campaign and other future projects.”

“Rough sleeping has increased in England by 55% since 2010, with more than 2,700 people sleeping on the streets on any one night in 2014. It is critical that more people are aware of how they can help if they see someone sleeping rough, and we’re looking forward to working with Tin Man to achieve that goal.”

Mandy Sharp, founder of Tin Man, said: “The key to this brief was understanding the social and cultural issues surrounding homelessness amongst the target audience. We had to create a relevant, content-led campaign that will engage them, make them feel something and essentially evoke action.”
