Communication is the key enabler for a better understanding of innovation

OUR APPROACH

We design and deliver communication solutions that make research research results visible, understood and used.

Over the past decades we have built an integrated in-house capacity (strategy and editorial work, graphic and web design, audiovisual production, measurement) so that the communication plan turns into content directly, informed by audience insight and monitoring — both quantitative and qualitative — that lets us adjust while the project is still running.

Our solutions bridge the gap between science and society, raising awareness, strengthening stakeholder relations and building consensus – all with the aim of fostering innovation.

Beyond visibility. Towards measurable impact.

What we do

Public communication

We raise the visibility of research results and reach new and multiple audiences, combining editorial work with in-house design and audiovisual production:

  • Project and visual identity, graphic design for print and digital
  • Web design, development and editorial management
  • Content development and science journalism
  • Social media management and advertising campaigns
  • Video and audio production: interviews, motion graphics, documentaries, video news releases, podcasts
  • Media relations and distribution via youris.com and other content multipliers

Dissemination & engagement

We design customized and targeted strategies to engage with key project stakeholders:

  • Stakeholder identification and mapping
  • Community building
  • Targeted content creation for policy, industry, scientific and societal audiences
  • Knowledge transfer tools: policy briefs, factsheets, toolkits, training material
  • Networking and event organisation
  • Capacity building and training
  • Communities of practice and stakeholder platforms

Monitoring & impact assessment

We measure the effectiveness of communication, dissemination and engagement strategies, and feed the findings back while the project is still running:

  • Metrics development (Community Engagement Index, CEI)
  • Impact monitoring: indicators, dashboards and reporting
  • Media and social listening, including sentiment analysis
  • Qualitative monitoring: content and framing analysis, interviews and surveys, stakeholders’ perception
