Steve Radick

SVP, Senior Director, BCW Global | PRSA Pittsburgh Sponsorship Chair

Without the support of our sponsors, we wouldn’t be able to offer events like the Renaissance Awards, the PR Summit, our monthly “Off the Clock” happy hours, our Agency Tours for young professionals or our recurring speaker series events. I believe our 200+ members benefit in many ways from strong sponsor support – whether it’s more frequent, higher quality events, discovering new technologies they can use in their job, making valuable connections with new partners or simply by seeing some of Pittsburgh’s most respected organizations stepping up and supporting the PR industry.

For our sponsors, they gain access to 200+ communications professionals who are increasingly being asked to do more with less, who are looking for the latest technology and partners who can help them do that, and who have spent decades in the relationship building industry. If your organization is looking to connect with companies here in Western Pennsylvania, I can’t think of a better group of people to help you do that than 200+ professional relationship builders.”

Here’s What Previous Sponsors Had To Say

“There’s a responsibility that comes with being the most tenured agency in the city. We’ve had an office here since 1957 and want to make sure the PR industry thrives here for the next 60 years too. That means investing in and supporting the entire PR industry in western PA, from the PRSSA students through the seasoned communicators. That’s why we’re a proud sponsor of PRSA Pittsburgh.”

BCW Global

“We chose to sponsor the event because we believe in supporting and honor the great work that is produced in this city! We wanted to get to know more of the fantastic and talented communications professionals and agencies in the area. It was a great event, and we are looking forward to supporting it next year.”
