2025 was a transformational year for Vigo. Having achieved record revenues whilst continuing to invest extensively in new senior talent, we are well on the way to achieving our goal of becoming the leading independent strategic communications advisor. We look forward to building on that momentum in an exciting 2026!
With a still volatile political and economic backdrop, the markets remain challenging. This means that having a broader advisory skillset which is applicable to private as well as listed businesses is all the more important, and we continue to demonstrate our ability to advise clients throughout the business cycle and the market’s ups and downs. This is a time where experience counts and having been through many previous market gyrations, we are able to provide our clients with perspective and ideas born of experience and practice. Distinguishing your equity story and communicating its delivery has never been more important, particularly when the fight for investor capital and liquidity is as sharp elbowed as it has been in recent times.
As we look to enhance further our skillset and client offering, we have added both breadth and depth to our advisory arsenal, with more sector specialisms and many decades of experience advising on the front line of stakeholder engagement. Where we differ from other agencies is the hard-won battle scars we bring to our work and our highly experienced team’s real understanding of what is required to deliver for our clients in good times and bad. We look to bring clarity from complexity as our clients face the many different challenges business must navigate in the current climate where the media and market move faster and react more quickly and often more violently to news and current events.
Winning the Corporate & Financial Agency of the Year Award in November was a pleasing way to crown a busy and challenging but ultimately rewarding year and I couldn’t be more grateful to our clients for their continuing support, and to the Vigo team for its dedication, skill and creativity.
We have come a long way since our beginnings in 2013 in a Regus office on Berkeley Street with a team of five people. Having navigated Brexit, Covid, the cost of living crisis, three oil price crashes, and a number of market downturns, we probably couldn’t have set up an advisory business at a more challenging time. But that makes the progress we have made, and the excellent work we have done in partnership with our clients, all the more satisfying.
