Newburyport, MA – May 2, 2016 – Matter Communications, an award-winning PR and social media firm with in-house creative services and search marketing groups, was named the winner of a Silver Stevie® Award in the PR Agency of the Year category in The 14th Annual American Business Awards today.

The American Business Awards are the nation’s premier business awards program. All organizations operating in the U.S.A. are eligible to submit nominations – public and private, for-profit and non-profit, large and small.

Nicknamed the Stevies for the Greek word meaning “crowned,” the awards will be presented to winners at a gala ceremony at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York on Monday, June 20. Many American Business Awards’ judges commented on Matter’s consistent upward growth and strong momentum. One judge wrote, “Matter Communications has much to be proud of. It is growing to new heights built upon the foundation of a great place to work. It understands that is the only way to create a place where talent wants to work and a place that attracts the best talent.”

“As we continue to diversify our offerings and add new office locations to better serve our clients, it’s rewarding to know our entrepreneurialism is being recognized by the distinguished judges of the American Business Awards,” said Matter Founder and CEO Scott Signore.

More than 250 professionals worldwide participated in the judging process to select this year’s Stevie Award winners.  Organizations of all sizes and in virtually every industry submitted more than 3,400 nominations this year for consideration in a wide range of categories, including Startup of the Year, Executive of the Year, Best New Product or Service of the Year, Marketing Campaign of the Year, Live Event of the Year, and App of the Year, among others.
