BPI Group

Bully Pulpit International’s rapid ascent in the UK has been driven by a bold vision to fuse high-level strategic advisory with world-class campaigning, media, and research capabilities. After buying European network Boldt at the end of 2023, the acquisition of Seven Hills and Message House in 2024 has transformed BPI’s UK operation into a powerhouse of influence, bringing together public affairs, insights, stakeholder engagement, and mission-led brand strategy. With 70 professionals in London, BPI's UK operation has become a critical hub within the agency’s growing global network, helping businesses and organisations cut through the noise and drive real change.

At the heart of BPI’s UK offering is the ability to bridge the gap between politics, business, and public sentiment. Seven Hills BPI has long been known for its work with high-growth disruptors and global heavyweights like Dell, Goldman Sachs, and Reckitt, and its Mission Lab brand strategy tool has become a go-to resource for organisations looking to sharpen their narrative and define their purpose. Message House BPI, meanwhile, has strengthened the agency’s ability to ground campaigns in data-driven insights, working with clients such as GSK to tackle behavioural change challenges in healthcare and shaping research-led corporate strategies for global brands.

This integration of research, creativity, and corporate affairs expertise has delivered major wins. BPI’s work with one global brand is a prime example of how the agency operates at the intersection of public affairs and communications—developing a 12-country campaign uniting strategists, consultants, and creatives to drive meaningful engagement. Its long-term advocacy work for Goldman Sachs’ 10,000 Small Businesses and 10,000 Women initiatives has helped elevate the economic growth agenda in the UK and beyond, while its partnership with Strava has cemented the brand’s influence in the active lifestyle space.

As BPI UK continues to expand, the ambition is clear: to double in size by 2026, deepening its presence in public affairs, reputation management, and media relations. With a strong foothold in London and a growing network across Europe, BPI is redefining what it means to be an insights-driven, campaign-centric agency in an era of shifting power, policy, and business landscapes.—MPS
