Social Responsibility Engagement

After many years of PR work for the indication of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), CGC decided to get involved in raising awareness for the rare disease beyond a client assignment as part of a CSR project. With the social media campaign #PAH_Nachbarn, the agency, in cooperation with a PAH patient who happens to live in the direct neighborhood of the agency, educates via Facebook and Instagram about treatment, research approaches and, last but not least, everyday life with the disease.

History

CGC was founded in 1992 as a management buy-out of the German PR-agency Leipziger & Partner and derives its name from its founder Hans-Joachim Cramer. The medical and sociopolitical journalist was managing director at CGC till 2004, when Dr. Klaus Schrage joined the management team. Dr. Schrage had previously been marketing and sales director at a pharmaceutical company and was a very satisfied CGC customer. The molecular biologist has been sole managing partner at CGC since 2008.
