About Us

Experts in applying local knowledge to global PR campaigns

Our history

Finzel Public Relations was founded in Madrid in 2003 by Piers Finzel, a long time British expatriate resident in Spain with years of experience in the local corporate communications business. The agency was created in response to demand by partner agencies in other key European markets who needed on-the-ground support in Spain as part of wider international campaigns being carried out on behalf of their clients, and that has been the cornerstone of Finzel PR’s service offering ever since.

Over the years, the agency has shown an exponential growth in revenue, and has developed particular experience in the areas of Technology and Industry, Healthcare, Education, and Financial Services, as well as in the Travel and Tourism sector. Operating both in Madrid, Barcelona and Lisbon, Finzel PR’s team of senior consultants are fully multilingual and are able to provide clients with a fully objective view and understanding of business and consumer markets in both Spain and Portugal.

Finzel PR is equally at home working either as a standalone agency for businesses with specific commercial interests in the Spanish and Portuguese markets or as partners in both countries within an international multi-agency campaign, using our knowledge and expertise to help client companies achieve their goals locally whilst maintaining adherence to the global strategy.

We differentiate ourselves by:
