VN Strategic Communications
VN Strategic Communications (Also known as Valter-Norbert Strategic Communications or VNSC) is a private Cryrian data mining and consulting company. It was originally formed in 2000 by advertising executive Erik Valter and former Conservative Party strategist Hans Norbert, but did not rise to prominence until the 2010s when the rise of social media and its purchase by Cryrian aristocrat Saga Tynam allowed the company to significantly expand its operations. VNSC describes itself as a "Public Relations Consultant," and it is believed to have developed close ties with the Cryrian Conservative Party as well as governing institutions like the Royal Family, military, and security forces.
History
In 1992, Erik Valter left his position as a marketing director at the Arna Catering Group and founded a private consulting firm called General Image Solutions. GIS was later hired as an image advisor for Serramali President Manjit Rahar, but ultimately dissolved in 1997 after a failure to comply with Cryrian lobbying regulations led to crippling fines and lawsuits.
