Lobbying & Politics

In direct dialogue
with policymakers

In his role as Political Affairs Officer at the association „Der Mittelstand.BVMW“, WORDUP PR Managing Director Achim von Michel has built a broad network over 20 years.

Anchoring the concerns of the business community in state, federal and European politics is therefore one of his core competencies. It is not enough simply to understand how the political system works and to address messages precisely to the right people. It is often the personal contacts with decision-makers and elected representatives in particular that ensure an open ear for important concerns and enable the necessary dialogue. We are happy to combine this with political events and accompanying media relations.

For an overview of our mandates since 1994, see Projects & References.
