Dreamtime Public Relations Pty Ltd has been named a Finalist in the 2010 Telstra South Australian Business Awards.
Managing Director Janet Craig said, “this is an exciting opportunity to gain further recognition for our company, staff, and the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities for whom we work”.
After a career in public relations with government, private sector and Aboriginal organisations, Janet Craig launched Dreamtime Public Relations in 2002. Her primary motivator was to offer employment and mentoring to Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the production of quality print and online communications. Two equally important motivators were to produce culturally appropriate communications for Indigenous people and to engender an informed understanding of Indigenous people by non-Indigenous people.
Today, Dreamtime assists in communication between government, companies and Aboriginal communities and Aboriginal businesses. The company specialises in Indigenous public relations, marketing, communications strategy, graphic design, web development, and promotional merchandise.
Thus far Dreamtime has mentored eleven Indigenous people, some of whom have established careers elsewhere and won awards. “Dreamtime Public Relations is one of very few companies Australia-wide which employs and mentors Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in this profession,” said Janet.
Congratulations to Janet and team, it's a pleasure working with such a dedicated and professional team who understands our needs.
