Connexion by
Boeing has appointed Elissaveta Ivanova as communications manager for Europe. She will be based in London and will manage Connexion
by Boeing’s media relations and communications efforts in cooperation with
Boeing’s in-country communication teams and outside agencies throughout
the region.
”The addition of Elissaveta to the team underscores the importance of the
European market to the early success of Connexion by Boeing, particularly
leading up to our consumer service launch in early 2004,” said Sherry
Nebel, vice president, Communications, Connexion by Boeing. “As we address these
tremendous opportunities, Elissaveta's excellent skills and experience, as well
as superb media and industry relationships, will add greatly to the effort.”
Ivanova joined
the Boeing Company’s international communications team in 2001 and has since successfully executed cross-enterprise projects to
enhance perceptions of the Boeing brand in the European markets. She brings to her new role an in-depth understanding of both the aerospace and
media landscape in Europe.
Prior to Boeing, Ivanova managed pan-European programs for
high-technology clients at Hill & Knowlton and GCI Group in London, which
she joined from the GCI San Francisco office in 2000. Her duties there included developing and implementing communications programs for Silicon
Valley-based clients in the e-commerce, telecommunications and software industries.
Ivanova holds a bachelor's degree in English from Willamette University and a
master's degree in international affairs from Columbia University. She speaks
six languages: Bulgarian, Russian, English, French, Spanish and Italian. |
