Cor·ner·stone

(ˈkɔr nərˌstoʊn), noun

The first stone set in the construction of a masonry foundation, important since all other stones will be set in reference to it, thus determining the position of the entire structure.

We are a communications agency based in Bucharest, Romania, specialized in public relations (PR), investor relations (IR) and capital markets advisory. We are a boutique firm, working primarily with local SMEs from a variety of sectors as well as we have a diverse portfolio of international companies that are active on the Romanian market.

Why communicate with Cornerstone?

Working and engaging with the right media shapes stakeholder’s opinions and, in the long run, raises the profile of your business.
