SpeakEasy Stage Co To Receive Pro-bono Consulting Engagement
SpeakEasy Stage Company has been selected from a competitive pool of 52 applicants to receive a pro-bono consulting engagement this year from the Harvard Business School (HBS) Alumni Association's Community Action Partners (CAP).
A team of six HBS alumni will be helping the organization with their ticket pricing strategy and marketing plan over the next six months.
"This is an amazing opportunity for SpeakEasy to get to know its audience better, and to continue to reach the widest possible audience," said Paul Daigneault, SpeakEasy Stage Company's Producing Artistic Director.
Chuck French, CAP Board member and sponsor for the consulting team, agrees. "SpeakEasy Stage Company provides a valuable service to the greater Boston arts community. The nature of their business challenge and their mission made them a very appealing client for our local HBS alumni, and we are looking forward to working closely with them."
