During the upcoming months, Gellis Communications will develop and implement a comprehensive PR strategy in order to support the activities of the client eSkills ILB and its members in support of their core agenda, namely to enhance ICT-related skills and competences (e-skills), and digital literacy of Europe’s workforce and citizens.

Gellis’ Management Team has joined a high-level working group of EU communications experts to advise the European institutions on ‘how to communicate Europe in the EU Member States'.

The European Commission's Directorate General for Economic and Financial affairs (DG ECFIN) has identified a need to enhance its communication strategy towards educational facilities. DG ECFIN asked Gellis (within the context of its framework contract for the provision of strategic communication advice) to design and implement an Educational study to determine the current teaching on the Euro and the EMU and the potential avenues for further integration of these issues.

Senior Management, constantly pressed for time and with a limited understanding of communications, often demand simple metrics to inform their decisions. How do you respond to their expectations and are you satisfied with the evaluation metrics used by your organisation to assess your communications strategy, tools and capacity?

As part of its Framework Contract with EACI, the European Union’s Executive Agency for Competitiveness and Innovation, Gellis was tasked to conduct a Communication and Marketing Study of the Marco Polo programme.

Gellis takes social responsibility TREEmendously seriously and that is why it launched a competition to help combat climate change.

On 9 and 10 February 2009 Gellis Communications participated in the International Association of Business Communicators (IABC) Europe and Middle East Region’s annual conference, hosted by the Università della Svizzera italiana (USI) in Lugano, Switzerland (www. eurocomm2009.com). Gellis gave a presentation entitled Result-Based Communications: Some Examples Taken from EU Public Policy Communication.

Glaubicz Garwolińska Consultants (GGC) and Gellis Communications are developing a campaign for a zero-emission fossil fuel power demonstration plant based in Poland’s Upper Silesia.

In the new year Gellis Communications will be undertaking a new project with the European Centre for Disease prevention and Control. Gellis' task will be to evaluate two communication toolkits which have been developed by ECDC in 2007 and 2008 for Seasonal Influenza and Chikungunya fever. These toolkits were developed to assist European health authorities in raising awareness and limiting the spread of these viruses.
