Bridget von Holdt appointed to IPRA

InZalo Communications' MD Bridget von Holdt has recently been elected as the International Public Relations Association (IPRA) council member for South Africa.

Effective for a two-year period starting January 2008, von Holdt says the IPRA delivers benefits to its PR practitioners and communications professionals in three ways: professional, financial and intellectual.

“This is a great opportunity for South Africa and with my involvement with PRISA we will be able to further expand our PR horizons.”
