Tanis Communications Expands Reach Through PR Consultants Group Partnership

Silicon Valley tech PR agency joins the consortium, giving clients deeper reach across the country.

SAN FRACISCO, CA, UNITED STATES, August 28, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — PR Consultants Group, the exclusive nationwide network of senior-level public relations, strategic communications and marketing specialists in more than 50 U.S. markets, today welcomed Tanis Communications, owned by Michele Landry, as its newest member, adding a Silicon Valley firm known for its deep-tech expertise to the network’s growing bench. The move gives Tanis clients a broader national footprint while Tanis continues to operate as it always has, as an independent, senior-led agency with a two-decade track record in technology PR.

“Michele and Tanis represent exactly where sophisticated technology communication is going,” said Elizabeth Edwards, president of PR Consultants Group and founder of Volume PR and Engagement Science Lab. “It’s no longer enough to understand complex technology and translate it into a great story. Today, communicators have to understand how that story travels through an entirely new information ecosystem — through journalists and earned media, certainly, but also through search, AI answer engines and the expanding machine layer that increasingly determines which companies are discovered, understood and recognized as authorities. Tanis brings decades of credibility communicating semiconductors, AI infrastructure, enterprise technology and other deeply technical categories, while already thinking seriously about GEO and how AI is changing brand discovery. That combination is enormously valuable to this network. We’re building PR Consultants Group for an era in which clients need senior specialists who understand both the technologies transforming business and the technologies transforming communication itself. Michele and her team strengthen us on both sides of that equation.”

Tanis joins PR Consultants Group as the network’s representative for the San Francisco Bay Area and Silicon Valley, giving member firms elsewhere in the country a direct line to deep-tech expertise, and giving Tanis clients access to senior PR counsel in dozens of markets beyond Northern California.

“We are a small but mighty team, working with clients across the U.S. and globally,” said Michele Landry, CEO and owner of Tanis Communications. “The network gives us additional resources as needed across the country and a mind bank for brainstorming the latest trends and best practices in PR. That lets us better serve our clients, stay ahead of industry trends, and pull in local resources whenever we need them in markets outside San Francisco and Silicon Valley.”

“We were born in Silicon Valley and started the agency with an integrated PR and marketing mindset,” Landry said. “We go deep on technology, but our job is also to help clients rise above the noise and establish their differentiation and thought leadership. Our media relationships and results-driven strategies are what amplify that brand awareness and turn it into tangible business results.”

Tanis’s recent work includes leading media relations for Ambiq’s IPO, an effort recognized with a MarCom Award and coverage on CNBC and Bloomberg. The firm was also recently named one of the top U.S. agencies by PRovoke Media and earned a Gold Stevie American Business Award for media relations on an IPO campaign.
