Glover Park Group’s public diplomacy, PR and government relations work for Egypt is worth  $250K a-month, making it one of the most lucrative contracts ever filed with the Dept. of Justice.

egyptThe contract calls for additional payments for development, production and placement of advertising pegged to GPG's standard 15 percent commission for media buys. Invoices will be submitted quarterly.

The pact is an open-ended arrangement, which may be terminated "without cause for any reason" within 30 days of written notification.

Egypt agrees not to poach any GPG staffer for a year following termination of the contract, unless the PR firm gives it a written approval for the recruitment.

Mohamed Tawfik, ambassador to the U.S., signed the contract on behalf of the Arab Republic of Egypt.

Chip Smith, GPG CEO, did the honors for the WPP property.
