MIKEWORLDWIDE AND BERK COMMUNICATIONS RECOGNIZED AMONG THE WORLD'S BEST PR AGENCIES ON 2025 THE PR NET 100

A year of rapid growth, breakthrough work, and standout leadership secures top honors for both agencies

NEW YORK, Sept. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- MikeWorldWide (MWW) and its subsidiary Berk Communications have both been named to the 2025 PR Net 100, a prestigious list honoring the most innovative and influential PR agencies in the world.

This dual recognition reflects a year of extraordinary momentum, creative leadership, and business impact as both firms continue to define the future of modern communications.

With offices in New York, Los Angeles, Washington D.C., London, and Mexico City, MikeWorldWide is rapidly scaling its global footprint as a modern independent. Recent wins like Flickr, Mattress Firm, and NFL Style highlight its cross-sector strength - fueled by PRISMA Labs.ai, the agency's proprietary AI platform powering smarter, faster, and more precise communications strategies.

Berk Communications has continued its rise as a leader in sports and entertainment following the official merger of agencies in early 2025 that made the largest sports and entertainment practice in the country, delivering standout campaigns for Fanatics, Tepper Sports & Entertainment, and the launch of Unrivaled. Known for moving fast, thinking creatively, and connecting brands to culture, Berk has become a trusted partner for companies aiming to make a lasting impact.

That momentum has been matched by a wave of industry recognition. Berk Communications earned Gold at Ad Age's 2025 Small Agency of the Year Awards, and team members Melanie Van Dusen (PRWeek 40 Under 40), Marc Sausa (PRNEWS People of the Year), Abbey Scalia (PRSA-NY's 15 Under 35), and several others were honored in Ragan/PR Daily's Top Women in Communications. MikeWorldWide was named most awarded PR agency by the 2025 American Business Awards, won Gold at the Bulldog PR Awards, and earned two Telly Awards for campaign excellence. Megan Hueter, of MWW's boutique social agency Everywhere, was also recognized among Ragan's Top Women in Marketing.

"We've built a global platform with standout talent, powerful tools, and a clear point of view on how brands grow in today's world," said Michael Kempner, founder and CEO of MikeWorldWide. "This recognition speaks to the impact we're making and the team driving it forward - helping clients lead with purpose and perform with precision."

The recognition reflects two distinct but aligned leadership visions, each driving results in bold, strategic ways.

"Berk has always been about delivering big results with speed and intention," said Ron Berkowitz, founder and CEO of Berk Communications. "This recognition reflects the strength of our team and the results we consistently deliver in a fast-moving, high-stakes space."

With a shared focus on earned-first strategy, AI-enabled insights, and cultural relevance, MikeWorldWide and Berk Communications continue to push the boundaries of what PR can achieve, driving results for clients and shaping what comes next.
