Brave Communications Pte Ltd – Public Relations (PR) Intern

Our Origin Story: 
Once upon a digital frontier, Brave Communications was born. It was a time when many PR agencies and their clients were reluctant to step out of their comfort zone. Not us. Brave Communications is here to change the script because we see bigger opportunities beyond the horizon. Brave Communications is an independent PR agency that helps organisations take smart risks to succeed in a digital world. Because in a brave new world, playing it safe is the surest route to invisibility. What differentiates us is our uncanny ability to apply a creative lens to conventional business perspectives so clients can tell their stories in a meaningful, engaging, and fun way to their audiences. Today, Brave Communications has grown rapidly to serve diverse organisations across renewable energy, digital payments & fintech, insurance, wealth management and enterprise technology sectors.
