Ballou is a pan-European tech PR agency. We help tech companies connect meaningfully with the audiences that matter.
With offices across UK, France and Germany, Ballou has grown to become one of Europe’s top tech PR firms, delivering expert campaigns for the world’s leading technology companies and venture capital firms.
We will support you at both the strategic and tactical layer of your communications challenges, helping to build your brand, promote your products/services and tell your stories across earned, digital and social media.
We are very happy with Ballou’s work and how vigorously they have been pushing OMMAX towards the UK media. Since beginning our partnership with Ballou, we have seen a 143% growth in organic traffic YoY in the UK and it has become our second largest source of traffic after Germany, where OMMAX is founded.
The team at Ballou goes above and beyond your typical agency. They have been able to adapt their team to meet the special needs and structure of our European launch so that we can execute on a 360 strategy that includes digital, print, TV, conferences and KOLs.
Let me say that it was a pleasure working with you guys and I was very impressed by your proficiency - we worked in the past with other PR companies so we have a good benchmark.
I enjoyed every minute of working with such a professional, passionate and dedicated team. In just over a year of working together, Ballou put TWINO on the world media map.
Brands That Trust Ballou With Their PR And Communications
We work with clients who might be early in their communications journey, as well as organisations that have established comms teams looking for new thinking or a new approach.
Our value goes beyond media coverage, with a full suite of services structured around three key practice areas:
As a full service tech communications agency we help organisations and venture capital funds define, protect and grow their company reputation. We advise influential organisations on staying agile, shaping public policy, navigating critical issues and engaging key stakeholders, for both B2B and B2C. Effective strategic communications counsel and execution are vital to continued company growth and evolution.
Specialists deeply embedded in the European tech ecosystem
We work with b2b technology businesses, b2c businesses and venture capital funds facing corporate communications challenges.
We work primarily with companies at late stage fundraising, often just pre- or recently post-IPO. We have capital markets experience both in the UK and US. We occasionally work with earlier stage startups or first-time funds who have a particularly compelling story to tell, or where our expertise dovetails with the company’s strategic goals.
