Golin + Ketchum

Golin's 2025 should have been its hardest. A landmark merger, an office move and the kind of structural uncertainty that breaks agencies. Instead, it became one of our best years on record. A fifth consecutive year of strong growth, powerful new business wins, winning Best Places to Work 2026 and the only PR agency to become a Contagious Pioneer. We moved from AI-curious to AI-capable, upskilled the entire team in modern media ecosystems and found space to deliver pro bono. We delivered work that changed behaviour and keeps changing the conversation about what PR agencies are capable of. ASICS Undropped Kit changed education policy. We turned a hearing aid into the hottest new couples ‘Relationship Aid’ for Specsavers, driving a huge uplift in sales and then we broke the internet with SuBo x Cornetto. This is not a story about surviving disruption. It's a story about what happens when a fiercely ambitious, fundamentally kind agency refuses to stop.
