ATREVIA celebrated in 2018 its 30 years of presence in Spain and 20 in Portugal with a global growth of 17.3% and a turnover of 23.3 million euros. The benefits before taxes increased to 2.5 million euros.
ATREVIA has consolidated its position of leadership in Iberia being the only consultancy with a network of offices in Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia, Galicia, Lisbon and Oporto-which led them to obtain the recognition of Iberian Consultancy of the Year in the past EMEA Sabre Awards Gala. In the same way, the company continues with its growth strategy in Latin America where it is already present in 12 countries with its own offices.
The key to these good results is its commitment to innovation in its more than 20 areas of specialization, where nearly 350 professionals work, which has led to renovate the business model and corporate image in order to continue addressing the new challenges of communication with its Agency, Consultancy and Technology divisions.
New structure and corporate image
ATREVIA technology, managed by Gerardo Sama, was born with the aim of digitizing the function of communication and bringing all the benefits of new tools to its customers. Recently, Sama’s team launched the platform Empatica by ATREVIA, a tool capable of making digital communication more humane between companies, clients, employees, shareholders and other publics.
Agency brings together the areas of PR, digital and creativity with other services such as Advertising, Digital Marketing, events or Influencer Marketing. All of them in order to help companies to impact their audiences and build links with a clear focus on the results. The integration of these services allows ATREVIA to integrate and broaden the scope of the message of its customers through its own platforms, won and paid media.
In addition, last year the company led by Núria Vilanova participated in the development of Rigel Media, a media agency, with 25% of the capital. Rigel Media, began its career with a team of professionals with ample experience in the corporate world and the advertising sector. Its goal is to accompany the customers throughout the media buying process, from research, strategy and planning to the final negotiation.
Finally, ATREVIA Consultancy divides its services into two major areas: influence and people in order to help companies address the challenges of organizational transformation and manage the challenges of the Public Affairs. The area of influence includes all those issues related to reputation and corporate positioning, public affairs and Institutional Relations, CSR and sustainability. In the field of people, internal communication, culture and transformation. All of them with the support of the social and market research area that works transversally for all its divisions.
They also recently reinforced their public affairs team with the incorporation of Manuel Mostaza, area director and coordinator of the ATREVIA Brussels office, which allows them to broaden the scope and impact of the management of the public affairs of companies from the closeness to the European institutions.
2019: Bet on Barcelona
ATREVIA has announced the transfer of its headquarters in Barcelona to a new office with more than 2000 square meters in order to make it a hub for innovation. While continuing their commitment to develop their leadership in the region.
