Ray Jordan - Video28 Feb 2022 22:52
Ray Jordan, big pharma PR heavy hitter, most recently of Moderna and currently consulting SNG (according to a press release on Fri Feb 18th) made an appearance on a podcast on Thurs and very much looked to allude to Synairgen on two occasions.
The live broadcast started at 4pm GMT, so both references were made after the market closed.
The two moments in question, transcribed below:
41.10m
"I'm sorry to interrupt but that triggered a thought for me, about the role of strategic planning, and the partnership between strategic planners and communication. I'm not active with moderna now from a consulting point of view in terms of what's next, but with another client we've been looking at COVID-19 from a thereputics point of view....
Now that vaccines have been very well promulgated, what are the oppurt- what are the issues w long covid? The sequele from the virus, the medical situations that come from the virus, loss of smell, cardiovascular situations, right.
So well It is possible from a true business planning point of view to look in to the post-covid world
And I think there's, I would encourage communicators within their own enterprises, what's being looked at from a business prospect point of view
Cause I have found that the media is getting increasingly bored of covid in terms of vaccinating people, but much more intrigued by the question of 'wheres long covid going?' How are treatments going to be made available for the problems people face from it?"

"On the question of the CCO impact, especially in companies that have had a direct involvement, ive actually seen, like with the thereputic company that I'm engaged with now, the recognition is that CCO has made such a difference in the Pandemic environment, by being able to reach out to the stakeholders and so much has been done in the sort of earned media environment and in the communicating with partners and employees, I don't think that's going to fade away, I think actually it's a recognition of the power there."

I'm not going to speculate as to what to interpret from his comments, but I'm pleased he's working with the company
