brass neck and KMA marketing launch strategic partnership
Technology and communications consultancy, brass neck, and marketing consultancy, KMA Marketing have announced the launch of a strategic partnership, to boost the capabilities and drive the growth of each business.
Both consultancies, run by Kirsten Paul and Killian McAleese respectively, started up in 2024. The two organisations will initially provide Droplet NeverTrustTM , the secure-vault company, with marketing and PR support. The firm helps organisations protect hardware and software from cyber threats.
Operating out of Edinburgh, but with clients spread across the UK, brass neck and KMA work with a range of organisations across a range of sectors including technology, digital and engineering. They will support organisations across the full content, marketing and PR spectrum.
Kirsten said: “Our strategic partnership with KMA Marketing is pivotal in shaping our next period of growth. This move will extend the services which can be provided to brass neck clients and the wider tech ecosystem.”
Killian commented: “The marketing and communications landscape has changed dramatically due to new technologies, new ways of working and evolving client needs.
“At the same time, 2026 will undoubtedly see a renewed focus on people and craft. I’m delighted to be working with brass neck because Kirsten brings the experience, skills and judgement needed for clients to grow and thrive, and the partnership significantly expands the services we can offer our clients.”
