The 2025 SelectUSA Investment Summit brought together over 4,000 global business leaders, investors, and U.S. economic development officials just outside Washington, D.C., and Violet PR was on the ground helping clients stand out. 
 
Representing a diverse range of U.S. regions—from Oklahoma, Georgia and North Carolina to Sacramento, Southern Idaho and Kansas City—our team worked behind the scenes to secure media opportunities, prep spokespeople and navigate a packed, three-day agenda of global networking. 
 
Whether coordinating press conferences, wrangling reporters or supporting high-stakes interviews, Violet PR made sure our clients’ voices were front and center.
