This agreement continues an active 2016 of new alliances for C&B, which has seen the company enhance its reach all across the Middle East including Saudi Arabia, Iraq and Jordan.
Both Miya PR & SM and C&B will combine their strengths to shape and deliver inspiring and creative communication strategies, and collaborate on client projects and new business efforts.

We are delighted to have found a partner who can work together with us in providing communication solutions that are flexible to work across the diversity of the region.”
