MWW Group will execute a public relations strategy designed both to raise recognition of The Olson Company's sustainable building practices and position its leadership as authoritative experts on such practices.

"Like MWW Group, Olson Company believes in its responsibility to be a good environmental steward," said Michael W. Kempner, president and CEO of MWW Group. "In addition, real estate communications, sustainable technology communications, and consumer lifestyle brand building are all core MWW Group areas of expertise. This project gives us an opportunity to combine those disciplines to drive awareness of Olson Company's environmental initiatives."

The account will be managed from MWW Group's Los Angeles office.
