About

We are a world-class B2B tech PR agency, boasting more than 18 years of experience servicing both local and multi-national companies.

Over the years, our team of PR specialists has grown to include marketing strategists, digital and social media experts, and content creators. Together, we’re able to find integrated, creative solutions for all our clients’ content marketing needs.

Red Ribbon also joined forces with a host of affiliate agencies across Africa with the goal of building a truly indigenous communications network that spans the length of sub-Saharan Africa. This has allowed us to ensure greater exposure for our client base.

Our vision is to be the most admired PR and digital marketing agency in Southern Africa with a reputation for achieving meaningful business results for our B2B tech clients.

Whether you’re looking for a boost in awareness, sales growth, an increase in web traffic or a reputational change, our effective creative campaigns and tech expertise give you that competitive edge.

Red Ribbon is a proud member of Brands2Life Global, Convoy Global PR network and the ION global network.

Armed with little more than a laptop, a phone line and a bold business vision, Ronelle Bester formed Red Ribbon Communications in 2003, a few months before her 30th birthday. The idea was simple: to offer her expertise to the emerging Cape Town start-up community.

Quickly Red Ribbon became one of the most sought-after B2B tech PR companies in South Africa, with a growing client base that included both local start-ups and international power players.

A lot might have changed, but we’re still privately owned, and continue to base our existence on three simple tenets: work hard, have fun, and make a difference for clients.

Building your business isn’t something we do for you; it’s something we do with you. We believe that, through close collaboration, we’re able to gain an intimate understanding and appreciation of your brand. As a result, we are able to design customised communications strategies that help us to grow together.

As communications specialists in Africa, our aim is to connect you to a continent rife with business potential. To do this, we use on-the-ground expertise to create commercially driven content that resonates with clients, attracts media attention and generates new business leads. Your African journey starts here.
