About Pathos
Pathos Communications is a technology-enabled, human-led PR company that was
established to democratise SMEs' access to established news publications to
increase their PR exposure capabilities. The Company operates a differentiated
approach to the traditional PR model of long-term subscription fees, by
offering a "pay-on-results" model, thereby providing an opportunity for the
over 400 million SMEs globally, which typically have lower PR budgets.
Pathos collaborates with its clients, comprising SMEs and micro-SMEs, to
create and distribute articles across a variety of platforms including
established news outlets, digital media and podcast channels. This is
supported by Pathos's proprietary AI-driven MVP (Minimum Viable Product)
stage technologies, PathosMind and Pressella, which are used to generate
ideas, undertake market research and create news articles with limited human
input required to generate highly efficient outputs.
Pathos is a multiple award-winning growth company. It was recognised in the
Financial Times 1000 as the fastest growing advertising and marketing firm in
the UK and the 33rd fastest growing company in Europe in 2025. Pathos was also
