Victorious PR has been named Best Public Relations & Communications Business of 2026 in the United States by Global Publishing Media Group (GPMG), a London-based organization that has been profiling business excellence since 2012. The recognition places the Las Vegas-based agency among companies that have demonstrated exceptional performance, strategic impact, and sector-defining results over the past twelve months.
GPMG’s Global 100 program reaches more than 600,000 subscribers and over 500,000 monthly website visitors worldwide. Winners are selected through independent research and review, with criteria focused on achievements, innovation, and contribution to local and international markets. The selection process evaluates the complexity of work, strategic impact, innovation, execution, and trusted recognition to identify organizations that consistently outperform competitors.
Richard Baker, Chief Editor at Global Publishing Media Group, stated in the 2026 awards announcement that recognition is evidence of performance, innovation, and trust, and that companies featured in the program are shaping industries and setting standards that others will follow.
An Unconventional Path to PR Dominance
Victoria Kennedy founded Victorious PR in 2020 during the pandemic, a moment when most businesses were shutting their doors. The agency crossed the million-dollar mark in its first twelve months without spending a single dollar on paid advertising. That early success was built entirely on the strength of the agency’s own PR efforts and client referrals.
Victoria’s background is unusual for a PR founder. She is a Wall Street Journal bestselling author and TEDx speaker who previously built a career as a classical opera singer, touring Europe and performing alongside artists like Andrea Bocelli. Her single reached number one on the iTunes Classical Chart in the Netherlands. That experience in performance and personal branding gave her a distinctive perspective on positioning clients in the media. She understood from her time on stage that audiences respond to authenticity, and that a compelling narrative can open doors that credentials alone cannot.
The agency operates on a press-every-week model that distinguishes it from competitors who deliver sporadic coverage followed by long periods of silence. Clients move through a consistent stream of podcast features, thought leadership articles, and placements in top-tier publications. This sustained visibility compounds over time, building brand recognition that influences investor decisions and customer trust.
Measurable Results Across Industries
Victorious PR has secured placements in publications including Forbes, Bloomberg, Business Insider, Fast Company, TechCrunch, Cointelegraph, Entrepreneur, Yahoo Finance, and Inc. The client roster spans AI companies, blockchain projects, real estate professionals, healthcare leaders, and entrepreneurs building seven and eight-figure businesses.
Roy Lee, co-founder and CEO of Cluely, an AI meeting assistant, worked with Victorious PR to build visibility that would attract serious investor attention. The campaign secured coverage in TechCrunch, Business Insider, Bloomberg, Fast Company, Benzinga, Hackernoon, and MSN. The press exposure put Cluely on the radar of major investors, resulting in a $20 million raise that included $15 million from Marc Andreessen at a16z.
David Minarsch, CEO of Olas, faced a different challenge. Olas builds user-owned AI agents on blockchain infrastructure, positioning itself against centralized giants like OpenAI. Despite raising $13.8 million, the company struggled to gain visibility outside crypto circles. Victorious PR positioned Minarsch as a thought leader through ghostwritten op-eds and expert pieces that tied Olas to broader AI shifts. Coverage landed in VentureBeat, CoinDesk, Mashable, Forbes, Fast Company, and USA Today. The campaign generated placements in more than 100 publications.
Hendrik Hey, founder of MILC (Media Industry Licensing Content), came to Victorious PR with a pioneering metaverse platform serving the media industry and various industrial use cases. Hey had founded European media giant Welt der Wunder over 25 years ago and needed to establish credibility in the Web3 space. Victorious PR crafted narratives around his transition from legacy media to blockchain innovation. Coverage landed in Forbes, Fast Company, Mashable, L’Officiel Austria, The European Financial Review, and UK Tech News, positioning MILC as a go-to platform for Europe’s enterprise tech evolution.
A Growing List of Industry Recognition
Victoria Kennedy, CEO of Victorious PR, reflected on the award’s significance: “I built this company with one goal in mind: to lead with integrity and help impactful leaders and businesses be seen and heard to have a greater influence on the world. This recognition validates what we’ve been building since day one. For our clients, it signals that they’re working with an agency that has been independently vetted and recognized for delivering real results. We believe in excellence as our core mission, and we adhere to strict standards in everything we do.”
The Global 100 award adds to Victorious PR’s previous accolades. The agency has been named the number one PR Firm in Las Vegas by Expertise.com, one of the Top PR Companies by Mirror Review, and the fastest-growing PR Agency in the US by PRovoke Media’s 2022 Global PR Agency Rankings. Victoria is an official member of the Rolling Stone Culture Council and the Fast Company Executive Board.
The agency has expanded its focus to include AI and blockchain companies alongside established work with entrepreneurs, real estate professionals, and healthcare leaders. Recent partnerships with NVIDIA, Solana, and Olas demonstrate the agency’s ability to translate complex technology into narratives that resonate with mainstream audiences and drive business outcomes.
For founders and business leaders seeking visibility, credibility, and authority in their markets, the Global 100 recognition signals that Victorious PR has the track record to deliver results.
