Meet the team
Who we are
PR built around how news actually moves.
We started as a press release distribution service and grew into a full PR practice. Today we distribute announcements through national newswires, pitch stories to journalists, prepare spokespeople, and manage reputations for clients ranging from startups to listed companies and government bodies.
We work with reporters, editors, TV producers and digital publishers across India, in English and in Indian languages, and with international media in the United States, United Kingdom and UAE.
We are digital-first by design: every campaign is planned for search and AI answers as well as for the newspaper page.
