“The industry is experiencing dramatic changes due to the increasing globalization and, most recently, the economic crisis”, Oliver Hahr of oha communication says. “The labor market is expected to remain rather volatile. This brings with it an increasing need for communication in the field of Human Resources – especially when it comes to winning the right specialists to join a company”, Oliver Hahr adds. “Engineers are extremely high in demand.”

“It was important for us to work with a PR agency that has experience in the fields that we serve, for example the renewable energy industry or pharmaceuticals”, Ed Wright of Matchtech says. “Additionally, we wanted to be supported by partners that are used to working internationally, because we will extend our activities to other countries in Europe in the future. oha communication is a good match.”
