PR Week Lists Dukas Public Relations among Top Five Boutique Agencies of 2010; Company in Contention for 'PR Boutique Agency of the Year'

NEW YORK, Jan. 18 /PRNewswire/ -- Dukas Public Relations (DPR) announced today that it has been recognized by PR Week Magazine as one of the five leading boutique public relations agencies in the industry, and has been short-listed for the publication's coveted "Boutique Agency of the Year" award.

"Our agency prides itself on doing one thing better than anyone else in the industry – securing ongoing media exposure for our financial and technology clients in the most influential outlets," said Richard Dukas, President and CEO of Dukas Public Relations. "The media industry is changing rapidly and we're fortunate to have a team of professionals here who understand how to consistently generate high-quality coverage that maximizes our clients' return on their investment."

DPR has been one of the fastest-growing PR firms in the country over the past three years, and has steadily built an impressive client list comprised of both public and private financial and technology companies. PR Week ranked DPR the fastest growing PR firm in the industry in 2009 (among the top 100 firms as measured by revenue) and in 2008 and 2009, Inc. Magazine ranked the agency as one of the 1,000 fastest growing privately-held companies in the United States.

Underscoring DPR's successful approach is its work with Westwood Capital. The campaign for this previously unheralded investment bank was recognized with two Bulldog Reporter "Gold" awards in 2009 for the best campaign under $10,000/month, and best financial campaign of the year.  Its campaign for interactive marketing agency Zeta Interactive has helped to establish the company as one of the leaders in the industry.  

DPR has more than 30 clients, with approximately 70 percent of its revenues coming from financial companies, and 30 percent from technology and consumer-related companies.
