College Hill is an international business PR and lobbying firm, launched in 1990 by Alex Sandberg.
It claims to offer the services "needed to build and protect clients' reputations with their major stakeholders": Media relations, capital markets communications, government and regulator relations, internal communications, strategic research, brand positioning, design and online communications.[1]
On lobbying, College Hill says: "By advising clients of political and regulatory changes that will impact their business and when, with whom and how to engage on policy issues, College Public Policy consultants help their clients' bottom lines to grow and prosper."[2]
People
- Warwick Smith, College Hill's lead lobbyist, head of its Public Policy division. Prior to joining College Hill, he was Chairman & Chief Executive Officer of Citigate Public Affairs. Before joining the public affairs industry, Smith was in government service for 16 years as a policy adviser, ministerial aide, and international negotiator. He is immediate past Chairman of the Association of Professional Political Consultants in the UK and is a past member of the Policy Committee of the London Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
- Alex Sandberg, Chairman and founder. Board member of the Public Relations Consultants Association (PRCA).
Clients
Sandberg coordinated much of the financial PR industry's response to scrutiny by the Financial Services Authority in 2008. The FSA was concerned about the FSA lack of control that non-regulated bodies - PR companies, for example - had over sensitive information on public takeovers. The FSA's Ruth Gevers said: 'Our review noted there were areas of weakness in terms of confidentiality. This is not about us regulating the PR industry, it is about making a difference.' The financial PR industry has committed itself to self-regulation under a new set of 'principles of good practice'.[3].
