WORDUP wins Davos Communication Award

WORDUP PR is among the winners of this year’s Davos Communication Award from the World Communications Forum Association (WFCA). At the official awards ceremony on April 9 in Davos, the Munich-based PR agency received the silver award in the “Global Communication Campaign” category.

The award recognized the comprehensive PR campaign surrounding the Global AIDS Report 2024, in which WORDUP supported the Geneva-based Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS). Approximately 3 billion people worldwide were reached as a result of the trilingual press conference, broadcast live and digitally from the Munich Press Club, as well as other accompanying PR measures. Winnie Byanyima, Executive Director of UNAIDS and Under-Secretary of the United Nations, was also present in Munich. As part of the AIDS 2024 Congress, thousands of people living with, affected by, and working on HIV gathered in Munich to share knowledge, best practices, and lessons learned from the HIV response over the past 40 years and from health threats such as COVID-19 and MPOX.

“Over the course of its more than 30-year history, WORDUP PR has worked for clients from 13 nations. This award recognizes our high level of commitment to planning and executing cross-border communications plans and makes us very proud,” said Achim von Michel, owner of WORDUP PR.

The Munich-based agency has also been serving a US client for around ten years and has also been part of an operational Europe-wide agency network for a London-based fintech startup for more than a year.
