News Publisher Lanka, a new generation corporate communications agency together with Publicity Bureau Studios – Maldives, launched www.newspublisher.online in Maldives in June 2024. It is Maldives’s first press release distribution system which simplifies the use of corporate communication tools at an affordable price.
As brands begin to expand their reach to international markets, garnering recognition as industry leaders, mechanisms to better improve the efficiency of communication distribution systems in Maldives are yet to meet increased industry needs. Large investments needed for publicity have become a limiting factor for companies to scale their product or service offering to global markets.
News Publisher Online; the automation of news distribution hopes to garner media support whilst developing the industry. The platform was created with three main stakeholders in mind. Firstly, the media – working as a communications platform for editors to download press releases and high resolution images to pre-plan their pages where necessary; secondly, SMEs and entrepreneurs – enabling businesses to communicate their stories and innovations to an island wide audience through national newspapers; and thirdly, public relations agencies too can subscribe for customised packages for PR distribution to maintain quality of publicity garnered for their many clients.
Established in 2015, Publicity Bureau Studios is more than just a creative agency. Renowned for rebranding Maldives ports limited and Fuel Supplies of Maldives, PBS strategized and designed all brand collaterals and campaigns for Maldives leading telecommunication brand Ooredoo, including conceptualizing and designing the most sought after annual calendars for the past 5 Years.
