“Having worked with a couple of agencies in the past I can say that my experience with JLA surpasses any other I’ve had in the past. Certainly, JLA has deep industry knowledge and specialization, excellent relations with the maritime press and the highest degree of professionalism that you would expect from a good PR agency. However, the most significant factor is the quality of the people. Their work is great and the results our cooperation brought for METIS are greater. JLA is everything a PR agency in the maritime industry should be and much more.”
Andreas Symeonidis, Marketing Manager, METIS Cyberspace Technology SA
