About us

London was PHD’s founding office in 1990.

We started life as the challenger agency and today, we continue to challenge what it’s possible for a media agency to achieve

Across three decades, PHD has grown into a global leader, employing more than 6,500 employees across 100 offices in 74 countries.

Our culture of thought-leadership, creativity, and innovation helps us create campaigns that generate real business results and help our clients leap ahead of their competitors.

It’s one of the reasons why we were named Campaign’s Media Agency of the Year 2020 and have appeared in Top 20 most awarded media agency offices in the world for SEVEN consecutive years. (WARC Media 100).
