We are the UK’s leading B2B tech PR agency. But what does that mean?
We help B2B tech brands grow, prosper, succeed.

We are a 40-strong team of dedicated professionals with specialist skills, led by an experienced management team and supported by a unique business model that focuses on achieving results.

“Working with Whiteoaks is an absolute pleasure. Their team has very much become an extension of ours and they understand who we are as a business. They have helped us raise brand awareness and opened up new channels of communication for us. We work with the agency on a set fees for set deliverables basis, and we started out knowing what we would spend and the outputs we would receive.”
Lise Cook, Marketing Manager, Bridewell Consulting
“Whiteoaks’ unique results-driven approach and a strong understanding of our industry has seen our relationship go from strength to strength. The team is easy to work with and very responsive.”
Alison Brattle, Marketing Programmes Manager, InterSystems UK

INSIGHTS & MEASUREMENT
Measurement is at the core of what we do. It’s more than reporting on coverage or Twitter followers. It’s about using that data to inform what we do next. Which is why we believe that the most powerful communications campaigns should include measurement throughout the planning, execution and evaluation stages – not just at the end.
Whiteoaks Insights is a range of research, measurement and evaluation services which can play a defining role throughout a B2B campaign lifecycle to understand and inform strategy, create audience-centric assets and evaluate performance to measure impact.
As a PRCA ‘Measurement Champion’ agency we take a rigorous approach to the delivery of insight and measurement services, aligning with the principles of the AMEC Integrated Evaluation Framework to link communications outcomes with commercial effectiveness.
Our 360 Framework incorporates Whiteoaks Insights at each stage of the process to ensure campaigns deliver against broader business objectives and achieve a tangible return on investment – a principle which has always been at the heart of why Whiteoaks is a deliberately different PR agency.
NETWORK
We also believe there is a better way to do international PR. Our International Performance Management (IPM) model provides four different options to technology businesses looking for B2B tech with international reach and consistent experience.
Each option will deliver performance-driven, strategic communications with measurable results and return on investment in every country, bridging the gap between the usual all or nothing approaches.
