Hill & Knowlton renames itself Hill+Knowlton Strategies

GLOBAL - Hill & Knowlton has decided to rebrand itself as Hill+Knowlton Strategies, saying it it feels the new name better reflects "a renewed emphasis on strategic communications advice".

According to Jack Martin, global chairman and CEO of the PR network, the change of the ampersand (&) to a plus sign (+) and the addition of the word 'strategies' will "point to a shifting market for clients, with an explosion of information and a revolution in the ability of almost everyone to find that information".

To back up the change, the agency is investing heavily in research and digital communications, added Martin.

“Hill+Knowlton Strategies will be a new platform for showing our clients how to reach the public and make themselves heard,” he said.
