Dynamo PR launches new US office in Silicon Valley

Dynamo PR has announced the launch of a new sister company, Dynamo Communications, based in Redwood City in California.

The new business will be led by Heather Delaney and is designed to support the agency's growing US client base from the heart of Silicon Valley.

Ms Delaney previously served as head of crowdfunding with Dynamo and has been credited with helping clients to raise more than $25 million (18.89 million pounds) in pledges since launching a dedicated PR team three years ago.

Dynamo Communications will have a number of retained North American clients at launch, including 3Doodler, maker of the world's first 3D printing pen, plus the desktop virtualisation specialist NComputing and robotic entertainment products developer WowWee.

Ms Delaney said: "We're responding to our US clients who've been asking us to set up a West Coast office for a while. This is a chance to bring Dynamo's creative approach to PR to the place known for creating truly disruptive startups."

Dynamo was launched in 2011 and has won multiple global awards, including best global PR campaign at the PRWeek Awards for its work with 3Doodler. The Holmes Report rated the agency as the third most creative by size in the world.
