| "With Indian foreign direct investments at an
all-time high and Indian companies expanding overseas at record pace,
India is a key growth market for Edelman," said Edelman president
and CEO Richard Edelman. "With R&PMC we immediately become
a leader in India, with the ability not only to support our global
clients locally, but also to address the challenges facing Indian
companies and global companies, especially on issues related to outsourcing,
intellectual property rights, CSR and fair trade," he said.
"We firmly believe our new company will add substantial strength
to Edelman's existing management team in the region," said
Hong Kong-based President of Edelman Asia-Pacific, Alan VanderMolen.
"At the same time, the joint venture will provide clients with
tremendous stakeholder insights and give them access in India to
Edelman's leading stakeholder strategies and measurement tools,"
he added.
