Buenos Aires-- On August 30th the Eikon awards winners for excellence in institutional communication were announced. GLOBALNEWS GROUP (SocialEyez) and TRES CUARTOS COMUNICACIÓN were selected among 188 case studies by an honorable jury of experts in communication.  

“We are very proud of these awards which are our 4th and 5th Eikon prizes. We want to thank the jury for the recognition of our work in political and business communication”, said Eduardo Reina, TRES CUARTOS COMUNICACIÓN CEO.

María Laura Garcia, President of GLOBALNEWS GROUP and SocialEyez Latin America said: “This is a clear example of the current impact of social media and of the importance of considering them strategically when developing communicational plans”.  In August 2011 Eduardo Reina, TRES CUARTOS COMUNICACIÓN CEO and María Laura Garcia, President of GLOBALNEWS GROUP and SocialEyez Latin America with its social media monitoring and analysis service joined forces to work in the analysis and quantification of the open, primary, concurrent and compulsory elections and on how the political party with the lowest budget, led by Jorge Altamira, was becoming an unmatched case. Renowned Argentinean radio journalists launched the hashtag: #unmilagroparaaltamira in favor of the left wing political party participating of the October 2011 general president elections. Not only did they help Altamira become a candidate of the elections but in a few days made him be part of the local and international press agenda.
