Gotham Public Relations Launches “TONDA” Italian Concept and Venue in New York

Feb. 18, 2009 - PRLog -- Gotham Public Relations is pleased to announce new clients and staff to service campaigns in 2009. "TONDA" is a new Italian concept venue in downtown New York, owned and operated by high-profile restaurateurs Bob Giraldi, Luigi Comandatore and Dario Milanin.

The agency has also been retained to promote the 30th anniversary KINO film series at the Museum of Modern Art via German Films and Television.

Gotham Public Relations will host dedicated press, architecture and design events during the International Contemporary Furniture Fair for industrial clients RAPSEL and NEO-METRO, with satellite events to occur at select project installation sites in New York that include new hotels and eco-conscious residences.

Select agency account executives also work as freelance journalists at key lifestyle publications that include BlackBook and The Fader magazines. New media approaches for clients by agency staff feature dedicated blogs, Twitter threads and online reviews, among outreach to more traditional print and broadcast media.

The agency builds upon its for-credit six-month applied internship program by adding new junior account executives from France and Norway. The ongoing relationship with the University of Dreams program at Gotham PR allows interns to train at the agency for one semester, as a stepping stone to a Marketing PR career and recommendation in the future.

The "dream' program is located in New York, Washington DC, Chicago, Los Angeles, San Francisco, San Diego, London, Barcelona, Sydney and Costa Rica.

According to Liza Newman, internship coordinator for University of Dreams, "Having placed five interns at Gotahm PR over the past year from Madison, Minneapolis, Houston, Baltimore and Los Angeles, we received consistently high ratings for the overall applied experience each participant garnered from work in a boutique environment, as well as the mentorship that principal Courtney Lukitsch provides."
