Ruder Finn, one of the world’s largest independent global communications and creative agencies, announced the agency ranked #2 on Observer’s annual PR Power List. The list recognizes the top 25 most effective, successful, and culturally relevant PR firms in the U.S., as well as the leaders behind them.
Observer commended Ruder Finn for becoming increasingly “more agile, prescient, and progressive in its 75th year”, noting CEO Kathy Bloomgarden’s “restless curiosity.” Ruder Finn was recognized for embracing data and conversational AI, expanding its global footprint with new office openings and strategic acquisitions, and adding more than 100 clients to its roster in 2023.
“It’s truly an honor to be recognized by Observer as one of today’s most powerful and influential PR agencies,” said Kathy Bloomgarden, CEO of Ruder Finn. “As Observer noted, ‘public relations‘ is just a fraction of what it takes to be successful in this industry, and at Ruder Finn, our strategy continues to challenge the traditional expectations of PR as we converge our marketing and communications capabilities and integrate emerging tech in everything we do.”
In addition to being ranked as one of Observer’s top PR firms, Ruder Finn was recently named among PRWeek’s Best Places to Work, as well as Medical Marketing & Media’s Agency of the Year.
