PRINZ Chair Heather Claycomb says, “We are incredibly fortunate to have Fiona leading the APR programme for PRINZ this year. Her longevity and seniority in the NZ industry, coupled with her leadership positions in the global PR industry combine to give participants the opportunity to learn from her expertise and knowledge in the field.
