About

One of the top-ranked global PR agencies by revenue and reputation, operating within Omnicom Public Relations Group with a presence in 80+ markets worldwide.

FleishmanHillard is a premier global public relations and integrated communications agency founded in 1946 in St. Louis, Missouri. Operating under Omnicom Public Relations Group, the agency has grown into one of the most recognized names in the PR industry, with more than 80 offices spanning the Americas, Europe, Asia-Pacific, and the Middle East. The firm serves a broad range of Fortune 500 companies, government entities, and nonprofits, offering expertise in corporate communications, crisis management, public affairs, digital strategy, social impact, and reputation management. Following Omnicom's Q1 2026 restructuring, FleishmanHillard absorbed Porter Novelli, which now operates as a sub-brand within the FH network, expanding its capabilities and talent base. FleishmanHillard's market position is built on deep sector expertise across industries including healthcare, technology, financial services, consumer goods, and energy. The agency is consistently ranked among the top global PR firms by revenue and industry recognition, winning numerous awards from PRWeek, the Holmes Report, and PRSA. Its integrated approach blends traditional earned media with data analytics, digital content, influencer engagement, and stakeholder mapping to deliver measurable communications outcomes. In the broader AdTech and MarTech ecosystem, FleishmanHillard occupies a critical role as a communications partner for brands navigating complex media environments, regulatory scrutiny, and evolving audience expectations. Its scale within the Omnicom network provides clients access to complementary capabilities across advertising, media buying, and data intelligence, making it a significant player at the intersection of PR, marketing, and communications strategy.
