About Robyn De Villiers and Burson-Marsteller:
Robyn de Villiers is the chairman and CEO of Burson-Marsteller responsible for South Africa and the continent. Founded by Robyn as Arcay Communications, the Johannesburg-based company has been engaged in public relations and corporate communications in South Africa and across the continent for over 20 years. She represents Africa on the Burson-Marsteller Europe, Middle East and Africa Leadership Team.
 
 In the late 1990s, Robyn integrated specialist financial communications and investor relations into the company’s core service offering and began an internship programme to provide practical experience for final year communications students. This programme has developed significantly to include in-service training for practising communications consultants and workshops to address the communications needs of clients. These are delivered under the Burson-Marsteller Africa Training Academy banner.
 
One of Robyn’s major achievements was having the foresight, well over 15 years ago, that Africa represented a vast, largely untapped market and a place of great opportunity. As a result, she started developing a network of communications affiliates that could serve clients needs across the continent. Today Burson-Marsteller Africa is a unique network of indigenous, in-country communications consultancies staffed by local people equipped to provide communications
