Citi5, a "community venture fund" focused on economic development projects using new media and clean technology, wants to hear from PR firms for a retainer contract.
Chris Houts, founder and executive director, told O’Dwyer’s the initial PR work is focused on New York but with national components. Citi5 plans to expand to London and the West Coast in the near term, he said.
Houts said he hopes to get a PR firm in place by the end of the year.
A key current focus for the non-profit start-up is to revamp the South Bronx as a hub for clean tech manufacturing by wooing corporate funding.
Firms interested in the ballpark $5K/month retainer can drop Houts a line at [email protected].
