SAN FRANCISCO, April 10, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Global public relations and digital communications firm Finn Partners today announced that Moxtra, a new venture from WebEx co-founder Subrah Iyar, has chosen Finn Partners as its PR agency of record. The account team will be headquartered in the agency's San Francisco office and supported nationally by Finn's Mobile Team headed by Christine Bock, Senior Partner, Mobile Practice Leader.

"Finn's capabilities in mobile, tech, business and Silicon Valley media strategy – along with very high recommendations from my peers – made the agency a clear choice," said Iyar. "Finn is also a great fit for Moxtra based on shared values of partnership, collaboration and creativity. We can't wait to get started."

Moxtra is an easy-to-use, power-messaging service for coordinating projects. Whether for students working in groups to beat deadlines, sales reps driving team responses for sales opportunities or business owners managing staff deliverables, Moxtra is built to orchestrate results in real time.

"From both a product and management perspective, Moxtra is a great example of how the Finn nameplate has come to represent the very best in mobile innovation and disruptive leadership," said Bock, "And given Facebook's recent acquisition of WhatsApp, mobile messaging couldn't be a hotter market."

Reporting into Bock is Ty Sheppard, Associate Partner, Finn Partners, who will lead the team's day-to-day program implementation.
