BBH is a global creative business founded in London in 1982 by three ad men who had a vision for a different kind of advertising agency; one that would merge the highest standards of creativity and strategic thinking to help build brands that truly stand out. John Bartle, Sir Nigel Bogle & Sir John Hegarty and the agency named for them, would quickly achieve legendary status as one of the most revered agencies in the world. Today, BBH exists in eight cities including London, Singapore, New York, Shanghai, Sao Paolo, Mumbai, Los Angeles and Stockholm.

We provide a range of services for our clients at a global level including brand consultancy, advertising, PR, digital experiences, events, creative innovation, design and CRM. We strive for simple, enduring ideas that are rooted in real human truths, and executed with brilliant craft. The culture of BBH is one that celebrates difference, education, inclusivity, innovation, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. This spirit is embodied in our enduring mantra: When the world zigs, zag.

We also like nice people.
