Simona Georgescu is the Founder and President of Adduco Communications, a B2B marketing communications and business development firm she established in 2010. With nearly three decades of experience in communications, public relations, marketing, and business development, Simona helps manufacturers, industrial suppliers, associations, and other complex organizations clarify their messaging, strengthen their market position, and support sustainable growth. Her expertise includes brand and messaging strategy, public relations, thought leadership, content development, sales enablement, digital marketing, executive communications, and event strategy, with Simona often serving as a fractional CMO and an extension of her clients’ internal marketing teams.

Simona began her career after shifting her academic and professional ambitions from law to communications, following advice from a professor at the University of California, San Diego, where she earned a BA in Communications. She later earned an MA in Communications from New York University, where her interest in B2B industrial communications and supply chains grew. Before founding Adduco Communications, she spent more than six years with ABI Marketing Public Relations, progressing from Associate to Director and gaining experience in client programs, media relations, content development, global business development, and sales leadership. She also worked with Cosmoprof North America, supporting packaging initiatives, exhibitors, speakers, marketing programs, and media engagement.

Throughout her career, Simona has emphasized long-term relationships, continuous learning, and practical communication that supports measurable business growth. Many of her Adduco clients have remained with the firm for five or more years, with some partnerships dating back to the company's founding. She is actively involved in industry organizations including TAPPI, AICC, PMMI, and MHI and continues to expand her knowledge of emerging technologies, particularly artificial intelligence and its impact on marketing and communications. Originally from Romania, Simona embraces a flexible, travel-oriented lifestyle and enjoys photography, writing, hiking, snowboarding, and exploring new places. Her leadership philosophy is grounded in clarity, kindness, honesty, integrity, and accountability, reflecting her belief that strong business communication is ultimately built on meaningful human relationships.
