Metzger Albee Public Relations Rebrands as MAPR, Announces Partnership with LINKS WorldGroup

Agency will have offices in Boulder, Denver, Miami and Austin to serve technology, healthcare, B2B and tourism clients

BOULDER, Colo. & MIAMI--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Metzger Albee Public Relations today announced a rebranding, simplifying the name to MAPR, and an expanded partnership with LINKS WorldGroup, based in Miami.

From offices across the country — Boulder, Denver, Miami and an Austin, Texas, office opening next month — MAPR/LINKS will continue to work together on technology, healthcare, business-to-business (B2B) and travel/tourism clients.

“After a successful trial program, we have found that MAPR and LINKS complement each other well and are excited to deepen our relationship to service clients in both the U.S. and throughout Central and South America and the Caribbean,” said MAPR President and CEO Doyle Albee. “The name shift to MAPR continues to honor the strong base founder John Metzger built over a quarter of a century while also signaling the new capabilities we’ve added both here in Colorado and through our relationship with LINKS.”

MAPR/LINKS are already serving several clients together. The expanded partnership allows the companies to provide public relations, social media, website and creative development, search engine optimization and media placement services to clients around the world.

“We were looking for a partner with a strong technology portfolio to both strengthen our public relations services in the U.S. as well as add website design, content development, social media management and SEO to our portfolio,” said Edward De Valle, chairman of LINKS WorldGroup. “This partnership builds on the inherent strengths of both organizations and allows us to broaden our client portfolio.”
