East Midlands-based business consultancy TBAT Innovation has appointed Integra Communications Ltd to handle the company’s regional and UK-wide public relations and media communications from December 2013.
Account Director Louise Third will work alongside senior TBAT managers as the company seeks to grow by expanding its professional team and client reach. As a former business adviser, Louise has a solid understanding of the services TBAT offers.
