Google Acquires API Platform for Digital Businesses

CHALLENGE

Apigee, the API platform for digital businesses, tasked PR with building its brand, supporting its launches, and broadening its thought leadership position. ​

SOLUTION

PR designed a multi-tiered program that pursued CEO-focused coverage; business media; developer press, industry analysts; and key verticals. PR worked with customers such as Walgreens to educate business media about how APIs can grow a company’s bottom line. PR packaged their offering with a case study from ATT to ensure higher-tier coverage along with analyst commentary. To broaden Apigee’s leadership positioning, PR pitched “The Apigee Institute” to position the company as the leader in APIs. ​

RESULT

Coverage included The Wall Street Journal, TechCrunch, Forbes, Fortune, VentureBeat, The Register, Mashable, Network World, CIO, TechTarget, ITBusiness Edge, InformationWeek, InfoWorld, Dow Jones and FierceMobileContent. Google acquired Apigee in a deal worth $625 million.
