NEW YORK, July 27, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Global communications consultancy Porter Novelli and Delsohn Strategies Inc. are coming together to create a unique reputation offering for global sports and entertainment brands.

From the Coronavirus pandemic to the ongoing racial justice movement in the United States and beyond, the combined force of Porter Novelli and Delsohn Strategies Inc. brings more than 20 collective years of experience to clients who are navigating today's environment and current crises in the field.    

"We are thrilled to formalize our partnership with Delsohn Strategies Inc. which brings years of experience in helping sports and entertainment clients navigate issues and master the art of media relations," said Sean Smith, global reputation practice leader at Porter Novelli.

"It's a fluid and challenging time in the sports and entertainment industry, and the organizations that communicate most clearly and honestly will have the most positive impact," said Steve Delsohn. "That's one of the many reasons that I'm honored to partner with Porter Novelli, which has always struck me as a communications consultancy with a conscience."
