Will SEO save PR?

Together, Hanson Search and Threepipe are hosting a panel event to discuss the growing trend of integrating PR and SEO strategies and teams. 

As PR departments come under greater scrutiny to better prove ROI, many are pivoting to adopt a more SEO led approach when it comes to shaping content campaigns and measuring online impact. This is creating challenges, both organisationally and culturally, as PR and SEO teams work more closely together while also revealing technical gaps in PR knowledge.

Alice Weightman, CEO of Hanson Search will be chairing the panel.

The panellists include:
