The Birmingham headquartered, integrated communications consultancy, Liquid, has joined the World Communications Forum Association (WCFA) as a corporate member.

The World Communications Forum Association is a global organisation of communicators, driving the growth and influence of the industry, catalysing positive change to create a communications industry ‘sans boundaries’ – geographical and ideological.

Liquid’s corporate membership with WCFA follows a sustained period of international recognition as the consultancy was named global ‘Large Consultancy of the Year’ in PRCA’s international Platinum Awards for 2022.

The firm was also named by PR Week as the third largest in the UK for its public sector work and ‘Best Agency Outside of London’ last October. Founded 18 years ago in a garage, Liquid has its HQ on Waterloo Street, Birmingham but works in 26 jurisdictions.

Liquid’s chief executive officer, Elisabeth Lewis-Jones, said: “As we continue to grow our scope of work, servicing clients around the world in PR, design, social, digital and marketing, we remain committed to contributing to the international conversation around shaping the industry and professional practices for the better.

“Through our membership with WCFA we will be able to collaborate and share insights with likeminded international ambassadors representing what best practice looks like and support on the development of a modern, inclusive, global communications industry.”

Maxim Behar, WCFA President said: “We are proud to have Liquid Public Relations as our member. No doubt the company will increase the professional standards in the Association and also will be able to expand its international relations. In the near future, we will rely on Liquid’s active participation in all our events and bodies.”

Liquid started its international expansion 11 years ago when it acquired offices in Jersey and Guernsey and has continued to grow its international client base working with clients across 26 jurisdictions, including Canada, Luxembourg, Hong Kong and Australia.
