The Bay House Group is in its 10th year of operation. The company is owned and operated by Karin Ivand and Rob Philip and specializes in strategic communications planning and project management, creative services including development of print materials and copy and one-stop shopping for conferences and special events. The company was originally established in Toronto, Ontario in 1989 and relocated to Victoria, British Columbia in 1995.
We bring to each project a high degree of creativity with a practical sense of what works best. We are excellent strategic thinkers, yet are able to turn projects around on a dime. We thrive in pressure-filled situations and stay cool no matter how much stress we - and our clients - are up against. Though we handle many types of projects, Bay House Group brings a particular knowledge and sensitivity to work that encompasses topics such as health, education, housing, municipal affairs, women's and a broad range of community and social issues. We have a proven track record in managing diverse and sensitive projects and are able to deal effectively with a broad range of target audiences. |

| The Bay House Group strives to provide the highest quality of service possible to each client. That means supplying the best strategic thinking we can offer, pinpointing the client's needs and those of their target audiences and creating projects and events that are appropriate for both the subject matter and budget. The way to make all of this a reality is by creating and following a good plan - while remaining flexible enough to deal with the unexpected - crafting imaginative and practical ideas, and unfailing attention to detail. | ||
