Caritas Digital, a subsidiary of Caritas PR Limited, has signed a strategic partnership agreement with Investis Limited, an international digital communication company, to deploy digital corporate communication solutions to quoted and unquoted companies in West Africa.

Commenting on the partnership, Adedayo Ojo, chief executive officer of Caritas PR Limited, said “ We are delighted with the partnership with Investis.

The agreement will enable us to combine our expertise to offer clients the best in corporate and digital communication”.

He added that the partnership was a response to an independent research report which showed a sharp rise in digital products and services globally and an encouraging increase in the number of corporations investing in their overall digital corporate communication in the past one year.

“Annual Reports are no longer shared during Annual General Meetings, rather these are now deployed through IR applications to targeted Investors, and shareholders with enhanced user interface for interactive engagements. The lack of these applications currently places some quoted companies in Nigeria in a disadvantage position”, Ojo said.

Ojo stated that the partnership has been designed to provide products and services including designing; building, hosting and managing corporate or investor websites and online annual reports, Investor Relations apps development, webcasting and social media solutions to quoted Nigerian companies listed on the London and Nigeria Stock Exchanges.

With this partnership, Caritas Digital and Investis will offer flexible solutions compatible with iPad, iPhone, and Android phones and social media for Investor Relations and Corporate Communication. Other solutions include iPad-compatible webcasting player; social media compatible widgets with a wide range of new corporate and investor-focused iPad, iPhone and Android Apps.

Commenting on the partnership, Adam Malik, Investis’ director, said, “Investis welcomes the partnership with Caritas PR Limited. This partnership provides the two companies with the opportunity to offer world class investor relations and digital communication services to discerning publicly quoted and unquoted companies”.

Malik noted that in the past six months, there has been a significant rise in the number of companies improving their corporate websites and wider digital presence.

This growth has been driven largely by growth in both Mobile (up 30%) and Social Media (up 17%).
