Why work with us

Harpswood has an excellent track record of growing with startups and scaleups as they themselves grow.

Our most compelling case study is Octopus Energy. Harpswood's founder has worked with Octopus since its launch through to becoming a unicorn and beyond. He has been described by Octopus's CMO as a "pivotal comms lead".

We have also worked successfully with VCs and tech accelerators - and in sectors including clean transport, carbon removal, SaaS, healthtech and edtech. We have supported countless startups through their Series A, helping them shape their narratives and land the right messages.

Harpswood contains many experienced former national newspaper and broadcast journalists who understand the demands of the media and how to pitch in ways that are guaranteed to generate interest.

Our media training has proved effective by helping prepare founders and CEOs for important broadcast and print interviews - and ensuring they don't get caught out by tricky questions.
