Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

Qorvis produced hundreds of media appearances for Saudi officials, organized major press conferences that generated worldwide media coverage and organized hundreds of outreach events nationwide. This multi-year endeavor has built upon the strong foundation that exists between the American and Saudi people and has contributed to the growth of an important alliance.

Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

Following the tragic events of September 11, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia selected Qorvis to neutralize negative media coverage it received nationwide after it was revealed that 15 of the 19 hijackers were from Saudi Arabia. In October 2001, Qorvis began its campaign-style efforts to reestablish the Saudi-U.S. relationship.

“When faced with a crisis situation, it’s important to prepare for the tough questions and develop a worst-case scenario. With our media training center, we can provide a setting to rehearse for a potentially hostile audience.”

Qorvis Communications

After winning the TSA contract to recruit and hire more than 100,000 new Federal airport security screeners, Pearson’s government solutions division faced a government audit that accused it of poor management and cost overruns.

Qorvis worked with Pearson executives to anticipate reporter questions and to provide an in-depth analysis refuting the allegations. As a result, when the story hit, Qorvis and Pearson executives were well prepared to dispute the charges and the company was successfully vindicated.

Picking a crisis communications firm is like putting together your dream basketball team comprised of those who have been to the NBA finals. You want people who have been to the big game – the ones with experience and practice on the highest levels.

PROTECT YOUR COMPANY’S MOST VALUABLE ASSET: ITS REPUTATION

Picking a crisis communications firm is like putting together a basketball team. You can choose from those out there who play pick-up games on the weekend; those who play in urban semi-pro leagues; and then there are those who have been to the NBA Finals. Who do you want on your side? The ones with experience at the highest levels.
