Vlog: It’s a matter of comms
Welcome to #itsamatterofcomms!
My name is Gihan A.M. Hyde, and I am the CEO & founder of Communique, a corporate communication social enterprise start-up specialising in clarifying and amplifying a company’s purpose, its environmental, social and governance (ESG) structure, and building communication departments for start-ups and scale-ups within the fintech world.
I founded the company to enable the creative and ambitious talents from underrepresented communities and underdeveloped countries to showcase their work and get the exposure they deserve while helping her grow her client’s businesses through communications.
In this vlog, I will be providing you with a bi-weekly video on my thoughts regarding communications “do’s and don’ts” for the fintech industry.
I hope you enjoy!
