Global Reach

“In the Internet Age, countries are becoming more and more connected,” — says BusinessWeek — “not only by trade but also by capital markets, by the flow of technology and ideas across national borders and by psychology.”
 
Clearly, in today’s world of global connectivity, integration and interdependence, it’s absolutely critical for an agency to be able to support its clients’ business goals with a strong global network, knowledge and insights.
 
Makovsky + Company has a wide variety of resources that deliver a competitive edge for clients in the global marketplace, including IPREX, an alliance through which we are able to offer our clients local and regional expertise worldwide; the Northeast Partnership, a consortium of agencies in New England, New York and New Jersey; and our unique relationship with Citigate Dewe Rogerson, a leading international consultancy specializing in financial and corporate communications.
