The ECCO network welcomes some new additions to the board – including our very own, Nicole Webb!

12 years ago, IMPACT joined ECCO, a global communications network that brings together over 30 independently owned and award-winning agencies to support multinational brands, nonprofits and government agencies.

Working with businesses in more than 40 countries, the network offers best-in-class service from communications agencies coordinated through a hub-and-spoke model. Offering clients a single point of contact and centralised coordination, ECCO carefully selects the best owner-managed agencies from each territory to create the reach and power of a global agency.

This month, IMPACT CEO and owner, Nicole Webb, was appointed to the ECCO board, bringing her unique insight and expertise gained from nearly 35 years of PR and communications experience in Australasia. 

In addition to representing the interests and unique challenges of our region, Nicole will be focused on developing new products and services for the network to further improve client offerings.

When asked about her new role, Nicole said, “Being part of the ECCO network has provided our clients with on the ground, local expertise they need in other markets. I’m excited to join the board and share more of what we’re doing here with the rest of the world.”

Other new additions to the board include Kelly O’Malley, Principal of O’Malley Hansen Communications in the US; Martina Biesterfeldt, Managing Partner at ad publica in Germany; and Jenny Oijermark, Managing Director at Swedish agency, JOI communication.

The board will be joined by agency representatives from around the world at the annual ECCO conference in Washington, USA at the end of this month.
