PRWeek is a trade magazine and news website for the public relations and wider communications industry. It is published by Haymarket Media Group.[1]

History[edit]

The original UK edition was founded by Geoffrey Lace and Lord Chadlington in the 1980s.[1] PR Week was later sold to Lace's former employers, Haymarket, the publishing group founded by Lord Heseltine, a cabinet minister in the governments of Margaret Thatcher and John Major.[1]

A US edition of the publication launched in 1998,[2] as well as a German edition.[citation needed] The US edition is editorially independent from the UK edition.

In October 2013, the UK print edition of PRWeek changed from a weekly to a monthly edition;[3][4] in September 2016 it switched from monthly to being bi-monthly.

Awards and rankings[edit]

PRWeek produces regular research about the UK public relations industry, including the annual ranking of Top 150 PR consultancies and surveys into industry-relevant issues, such as staff retention.[citation needed]

In October 2013, the UK print edition of PRWeek changed from a weekly to a monthly edition;[3][4] in September 2016 it switched from monthly to being bi-monthly.

PRWeek organises industry awards, referred to by the Financial Times as the "highest honours in communications and PR".[5]
