Avenue Z is proud to announce that Abdullah Alkudsi, a key member of our team at Bevel, an Avenue Z company, has been recognized as one of the 23 rising stars in public relations by Business Insider.
Since joining Bevel as a summer associate in 2021, Abdullah has quickly distinguished himself as a specialist in crisis communications. Overseeing 10 major accounts, including prominent clients like investment bank Recharge Capital and the innovative college-scholarship app Scholly, Abdullah has proven his expertise and strategic acumen time and again.
During the tumultuous events surrounding the 2023 failures of Signature Bank and Silicon Valley Bank, Abdullah was instrumental in guiding several of Bevel’s clients through the crisis. His effective strategies and insightful advice helped these companies navigate the challenging financial landscape, reinforcing their stability and earning public trust.
Abdullah’s impact extends beyond crisis management. He has successfully placed two op-eds in The Wall Street Journal, advocating for support of regional banks—a move that not only enhanced his clients’ profiles but also contributed to a broader industry conversation. His efforts in securing extensive media coverage for events like Better.com’s IPO and arranging speaking engagements at prestigious conferences such as the Milken Future of Health Summit, WebSummit Rio, and Abu Dhabi Finance Week have significantly boosted visibility and business opportunities for our clients.
His swift ascent in the PR world reflects both his talent and the dynamic environment at Avenue Z and Bevel, where innovation and leadership in communications are continually fostered.
