Pegasus crowned PR Week’s Specialist Consultancy of the Year, making a hat-trick of Consultancy wins in 2016!
Pegasus, an Ashfield company, part of UDG Healthcare
plc, is delighted to have been crowned Specialist Consultancy of the Year at
this week’s prestigious PR Week Awards. The accolade tops a trio of big award
wins in 2016 for Pegasus, an integrated healthcare communications consultancy
with a mission to ‘inspire healthy decisions’.
The PR Week Award judges said of Pegasus, it is “a very capable agency pulling amazing growth figures while doing really creative work for clients.” The judging panel also recognised the power of its integrated approach, blending insight and strategic planning around behaviour change, with a broad mix of creative, social and digital services, alongside influencer and media relations.
Pegasus’ winning awards season started in Berlin in June where it picked up the notable title of EMEA Healthcare PR Consultancy of the Year at the Sabre Awards, organised by The Holmes Report. The judges recognised the agency’s “exceptional integrated offer, their pace of growth and an investment in people and skills”. In July, the agency added the esteemed Consultancy of the Year award to its honors at the 2016 Communiqué Awards in London with judges saying its “winning combination of style and substance, meant that they really stood out to the judges as a worthy winner.”
Simon Hackett, Managing Director at Pegasus, commented: “We are delighted that our ‘health first, sector second’ approach, continued passion, and unique integrated offering is not only delivering results for our clients but also being recognised at such a high level across the industry. This latest recognition from PR Week has rounded off a highly successful year so far for Pegasus and we are proud of what our team continue to achieve for our clients.”
Pegasus has also been shortlisted for the PRCA Specialist Consultancy of the Year award, being announced in November 2016.
Pegasus was acquired by UDG Healthcare plc in April 2016 and has joined Ashfield Healthcare Communications, part of the Ashfield Commercial & Medical Services division. For further information, please visit www.thisispegasus.co.uk or www.ashfieldhealthcare.com.

- Personalized Oncology: Calling for a New Kind of Partnership:
- In the 1990s, biomarkers were the future of personalized medicine and a “lab on a chip” was the holy grail of understanding patient health. As much as past predictions of whole organ transplants and intra-body cameras have been realized, the notion of using measuring an array of protein to better understand a patient’s individual health, current and future, has still eluded us. But maybe for not much longer.
