CCNE is a network of owner-managed European consulting agencies who specialise in crisis communication and was founded by some of the leading European Crisis Communications Consultancies to provide European wide connectivity for clients in times where crisis management is required.

Established in 2000, Fuzion Communications’ crisis management experience is second to none, with a strong team of highly knowledgeable media trainers, former journalists, social media experts and professional crisis communication consultants, ensuring all crisis scenarios can be catered for. The agency has been recognised for its work and has received several awards since its inception for achieving excellent results for their clients.

CCNE is an ever-growing association that aims to offer its members advice from communications companies around Europe. The network has experienced rapid growth since its launch earlier this year, with members in Germany, the Netherland, Austria, Italy, the UK, and now Ireland. CCNE spokesperson Mattias Glötzner commented “We are now able to cover crisis issues in Ireland with the help of our outstanding local partner, Fuzion Communications. We are delighted to announce this partnership and to be able to continue to grow the services that we can offer to our clients.”

As a full-service agency with offices in Dublin and Cork, Fuzion has worked on many high-profile national and international crises, and Deirdre Waldron, founder of Fuzion Communications commented: “Every organisation needs to be aware of its vulnerabilities and should have a plan in place to deal with a crisis situation, should it occur.”

She added, “However well prepared, a crisis can occur nevertheless, and it doesn’t have to stop at borders. Because of this, it is such a great opportunity for Fuzion and for our clients to have this strong connectivity with some of the leading communications agencies across Europe who share the same values and ethos around communications as us.”

Many of the potential crisis situations which Fuzion has worked on have never materialised due to strategic planning, internal communications and careful management. Deirdre continued “Public Relations and Crisis Communications are all about strategic management and communications within your business. We are looking forward to working with our European colleagues through the network, offering our clients a European-wide offering with some of the best consultants in the business globally.”
