Thematic Capital Partners Appoints Chalk

London, 1st June 2009 - Thematic Capital Partners (Thematic), a private equity and venture capital fund specialising in the use of social media within the financial markets, has appointed Chalk, the straight-talking corporate communications consultancy, to establish, enhance and protect its reputation in Western Europe. 

The appointment marks an important milestone in the fund’s growth, as it seeks to capitalise on the increasing disconnect between financial markets and social media technologies.

As a part of this brief, Chalk will work closely with the senior team to develop a communications strategy that supports the commercial growth targets of the fund.  However additional activity is expected to include establishing a reputation for Thematic’s financial services networking brand, www.Hedgehogs.net.
