Expanding the Narrative in Latin America
A decade ago, Airbus, a global leader in the aerospace sector, established a strategic alliance with GJ Comunicaciones to manage its communication presence in Colombia. Recognizing the agency's impact and local expertise, this relationship evolved in 2024 into a regional mandate. Today, the GJ Comunicaciones team operates as an integral extension of Airbus's Communications department for Latin America and the Caribbean, managing the brand's reputation across multiple high-growth markets.
