Thrive is the largest family-owned, female-run independent PR agency in Australia and New Zealand with five offices in major cities. We work with established businesses who are transforming and brands disrupting and growing.

As a heavyweight agency, we combine the “best of both worlds” when it come to attributes of the multinational and boutique agencies ; big agency resources, investment in the best talent, unrivalled best practice standards and processes, yet coupled with an entrepreneurial spirit and the freedom to do things differently.

Thrive is a partner to big or emerging brands in the 'corp-sumer' space, where we deliver public relations and digital media services that combine new age corporate and brand communications under the one, privately owned agency umbrella.  

Whether it’s engaging major enterprise, SMBs or local communities, our clients love how we combine logic and magic to the way we build smart campaigns. Our digital capabilities sit within a fully integrated PR service model that allows us to deliver the basic PR services the best, yet we push the boundaries with our clients and introduce new communications methods that reshape their definition of PR. For nearly two decades we have been famous for earned media - we have hundreds of media contacts - but being independent means we are 100% accountable and we can innovate to ensure our client service is ahead of the game.

Thrive team is the gold standard of PR. Great team, culture and people. Love their work "
Henry K's Review Sourced from Google
Avoid.I booked their boardroom for an off-site event.Over one month has passed since my booking and I still have not yet received my $500 refundable deposit!I have wasted an unacceptable amount of time and energy chasing their finance team and don’t want others having to go through the same experience. "
