Landmark Ventures is seeking a firm to handle PR and social media for its Social Innovation Summit set for Washington on June 7-8.

It is targeting a broad range of media outlets including the New York Times, The Economist, NPR, “60 Minutes,” Washington Post, Variety, Bleacher Report, The New Yorker, TechCrunch, Wall Street Journal and Reader’s Digest.

Landmark, which envisions a four-month PR push for the Summit beginning in March, wants proposals by Feb. 11.
