Gresham Technologies wanted to raise the individual profile of its CEO in the business media.
Aspectus was tasked by post-trade vendor Gresham Technologies to increase the presence of CEO Ian Manocha by coming up with topical boardroom issues.
Our Approach
Gresham Technologies wanted to increase visibility of Ian in the business press. However, the competition for FTSE CEO commentary in the business media is ferociously competitive. Therefore, Gresham needed creative and compelling angles to cut through a crowded market. Our Capital Markets team identified media attention around making the UK a more attractive destination for tech vendors to list. Gresham’s CEO has strong views around what reforms need to be implemented. Our team devised a 3 to 4 month content and media campaign that aimed to secure business press coverage. To supplement the angle, the team also created an angle around the impact of UK regulatory divergence.
Results we’re proud of
