JUMPA

Founded in 2018 in Kota Kinabalu, Malaysia, JUMPA emerged from a straightforward observation: businesses in Sabah often struggled to find a single agency that could handle both their media production and strategic communications needs. The name itself, which means "to meet" or "to find" in Bahasa, reflects the agency's core purpose—connecting clients with the right audiences through thoughtful, integrated communications. Located in the heart of Kota Kinabalu, JUMPA was built to serve local businesses, startups, and larger organizations looking to establish or strengthen their presence in the Borneo market.

Integrated Communications for the Borneo Market

JUMPA positions itself as a holistic public relations and media agency, offering services that span the full spectrum of modern communications. The agency's work is rooted in the belief that effective client engagement requires more than just a single channel—it demands a coordinated approach across traditional media, digital platforms, and live events. JUMPA's team handles everything from media strategy and public relations to content creation and digital marketing, ensuring that clients' messages are consistent and impactful. The agency's location in Kota Kinabalu gives it a distinct advantage in understanding the local market dynamics of Sabah and the broader Borneo region, while its service offerings are designed to meet the needs of both local and national clients.

Services and Specialties

JUMPA's service portfolio is built around five core areas that collectively address the full lifecycle of a communications campaign. The agency's capabilities include:

• Public relations and media strategy, including media relations, press releases, and crisis communications
• Content marketing, including copywriting, blog posts, and online content development
• Digital marketing solutions, including social media management, website development, and search engine optimization
• Creative production, including videography, photography, and graphic design
• Event management and brand activation, from corporate launches to community-focused gatherings

Beyond these core offerings, JUMPA also provides business consulting and hosting services, making it a practical partner for startups and small businesses that need guidance on building their online presence from the ground up. The agency's emphasis on B2B communications and client connection means that it works closely with each client to understand their specific goals, rather than applying a one-size-fits-all approach.

Supporting Local Growth and National Ambitions

JUMPA is particularly well-suited for businesses and organizations that are looking to expand their footprint in Sabah or across Malaysia. The agency's local startup support services are designed for entrepreneurs and small teams who may not have internal marketing departments but need professional-grade communications to compete. At the same time, JUMPA's experience with larger brands and government entities means it can also handle more complex, multi-channel campaigns that require coordination across events, media, and digital platforms. The agency's work in content marketing and social media management helps clients maintain an active, engaging online presence, while its event management capabilities allow for in-person brand activations that build community and trust.

JUMPA is a practical choice for any organization—from local startups to established companies—that wants a single, reliable partner for public relations, content creation, and digital marketing in Kota Kinabalu and beyond. Its integrated approach means clients don't have to juggle multiple vendors for photography, web development, and PR; instead, they get a cohesive strategy delivered by a team that understands both the local market and the broader communications landscape of Malaysia.
