Avoq has acquired SRA Communications, a Harrisburg-based PA shop focused on public health, banking, energy, and public utilities.
SRA founder Steve Aaron, who began his career as a radio & TV reporter/anchor, served as deputy director of communications for Pennsylvania’s Republican Governor Tom Ridge.
He then was lead spokesperson during the transition to Governor Mark Schweiker after Ridge became assistant to George W. Bush for homeland security following the 9/11 terror attacks.
Aaron became VP & PR Director at Allen & Gerritsen in Dec. 2011, and founded SRA in 2012.
Avoq CEO Nicole Cornish said under Aaron’s leadership SRA Communications has “grown into an established problem solver for national and Pennsylvania-based companies and organizations.”
She expects Avoq clients “will benefit from Steve’s years of experience as a journalist, government spokesman and PR practitioner.”
Why scalability has increasingly become the deciding variable in PR M&A.
The AI revolution has transformed how public relations agencies work and deliver value to clients. But it’s also changed how buyers value those firms, and understanding AI’s influence on valuation is essential for agency owners planning on selling in the future.
