3. The Academy is a PR agency founded by
Mitch Kaye and Dan Glover, two friends
who had already built one of the most
creatively-awarded PR companies in the
country, but were convinced they could
design a better one. They thought long
and hard about what their new agency
should be called, but then won three
new clients before they even launched
(UEFA, News UK and Krispy Kreme
doughnuts if you’re interested) so
quickly decided on The Academy
– an institution that sets the highest
standards in it a particular field, but
also a place of learning – rolled their
sleeves up, and got to work.
4. Our mission is pretty simple: to bring
the brightest minds together to create
work that gets noticed, solves a problem
and passes into popular culture. Every
mind is bright and capable of solving PR
problems, but the collective is stronger.
A bit like Plato’s Academy in Ancient
Greece. Or the Avengers.
