Dukas Public Relations, ranked as one of the ten largest financial PR agencies in the industry by O’Dwyer’s, has changed its name to Dukas Linden Public Relations (DLPR).
The name change underscores Seth Linden’s growing managerial responsibilities. Linden, who joined the agency in 2006 following seven years working in broadcast journalism, has helped the PR firm increase revenue by more than 400%
As part of the name change, Linden will keep his current title of president and Richard Dukas will remain chairman and CEO.
“Seth became a partner in the agency several years ago as a result of his tireless leadership and exceptional client service, and I am proud that the ‘Linden’ name is now part of the agency’s brand and identity,” Dukas said in a statement.
