Welcome to our review of PR pitches and mergers & acquisitions in the UK PR scene with Andrew Bloch. Here we discuss the biggest pitch wins and mergers & acquisitions that the PR sector has seen in July 2025
Andrew is the lead consultant - PR, Social, Content and Influencer at the new business consultancy firm AAR and a partner at PCB Partners, where he advises on buying and selling marketing services agencies.
The PRmoment podcast will be taking a more relaxed approach over the summer. We won’t be doing weekly shows but as and when pressing PR issues occur that need discussion we’ll hop back on the pod.
Also, thanks so much to the PRmoment Podcast sponsors the PRCA.
