„Somebody able to enjoy doesn’t drink wine any more, but is sampling secrets“
Salvador Dalí
The great surrealist from Catalunya stands a little bit for the philosophy of our small, fine agency as well. To bring things word confidently to the point, supported by deep understanding, always with a radar open to the world – this describes the xenos-comm DNA quite well.
„xenos“ is Greek and means guest, stranger, traveller. To be on the road, understanding different countries, cultures and markets, bringing people together, often with a glass of good wine – this emphasizes the focus of the agency xenos-comm, founded in 2011 at Sachsenheim in the Stuttgart region. Small, but fine, it works only for selected clients in the fields of wine marketing, tourism, trade fairs and events. We are communicating safely in German and English as well as in French, Italian, Spanish and Portuguese.
Owner Thomas Brandl is a trained journalist with very huge international experience, PR professional and globetrotter with career stages as head communicator of Stuttgart International Trade Fairs, a global stock exchange company at Kassel and the diocese of Rottenburg-Stuttgart. Since 2011 he opened doors to the markets in Germany and surrounding countries to a row of wine countries in Southeastern Europe. Moreover the agency founder is serving as wine judge worldwide and writes for several magazines.
Angélica Ibarra originally comes from Colombia and is living in Bruxelles since many years. She works as graphic designer and web administrator for Concours Mondial de Bruxelles (CMB), one of the most important wine competitions in the world. At xenos-comm she’s responsible for external appearance, the homepage, media communication and the organisation of events in Germany and abroad.
