**Strategic communications consultancy** [**Gladius Communications**](https://www.gladiuspr.com/?ref=capitolcommunicator.com)**, based in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, acquired D.C.-based defense and aerospace technology communications firm** [**Marcoux Strategies.**](https://www.marcouxstrategies.com/?ref=capitolcommunicator.com)

According to a release, “Gladius is a strategic and transformation communications agency dedicated to helping clients leverage communications as a catalyst to grow, transform, build, and protect their organizations. The firm, founded in 2019 by former in-house corporate communicators, provides unmatched experience leading change, transitions, and transactions that drive operational goals and business growth.”

The release states that Marcoux Strategies, a woman-owned, minority-owned small business, achieved significant growth in its four-year history by creating strategies for federal-civilian and defense agencies and the contractors who serve them. With deep expertise in strategic communications, change management, inclusion, and innovation, the firm elevates companies and causes to influence audiences and help leaders focus on their mission.

**Sandra Pérez,** Marcoux’s founder and chief executive officer, will join Gladius as Vice President and lead the combined firm’s defense and aerospace practice. She founded Marcoux Strategies after two decades developing communications for Fortune 50 companies, federal agencies, and nonprofits leading media relations, community engagement, corporate citizenship and inclusion initiatives.

“Incorporating Marcoux Strategies capabilities and clients into our portfolio is a natural next step in our multi-year partnership, helping to accelerate our overall growth trajectory and bringing additional expertise to bear for our current and future clients,” said Gladius President **B.J. Talley,** shown above**.** “Most importantly, Sandra is an absolute dynamo with strong relationships in the defense industry and someone with whom our team has enjoyed working closely over the last several years.”

“Joining forces with the Gladius team honors the more than twenty clients who have trusted Marcoux Strategies with their ambitious dreams for growth and service,” said Perez. “Together, we are now able to provide more capability to accelerate our clients’ growth and service delivery to missions that matter.”
