Milton Advisers Launches with Ambitions to Disrupt and Deliver
A new strategic communications firm, Milton Advisers, has launched with bold ambitions to disrupt the traditional agency industry.
The firm’s founders decided to launch the company after a realisation that the global pace of change, rising instability, economic volatility, climate change and disruptive technologies, needed to be met with a new approach. Milton Advisers will be a focused, agile and unique agency that embraces bold and proactive strategies for clients to thrive in these uncertain times.
Co-founders Louis Rynsard and Alex Walker commented:
“We are living through unprecedented times. How individuals, organisations and issues are perceived can change in an instant. There are new pressures, new channels, and new audience demands emerging every day.
“The traditional agency model isn’t reflective of the proactive and relentless approach needed to tackle the unforgiving communications environment facing businesses and governments.
“That’s why we are set up differently. We have senior people from politics, business, technology and media who bring the knowledge and experience, and we have a culture that is rooted in the word relentless; doing whatever it takes to deliver.”
Milton Advisers is based in London and offers strategic communications and government relations services. It launches with an established network of partners covering geographies including Brussels, New York and Washington D.C. as well as expertise in digital campaigns, corporate investigations and intelligence, polling and research and campaign management.
They added:
“Milton Advisers’ offer is strategy-first, with a relentless focus on execution. We help companies and organisations in diverse industries to proactively engage, rather than react to policy interventions. We help governments shape the geopolitical environment rather than navigate it, and we work with corporate and political leaders to tell their story in a meaningful way, not just take part in the latest TikTok trend.”
