Recognition follows Arketi’s expansion through the additions of Braithwaite Communications and Sperling Interactive
ATLANTA – Sept. 28, 2026 – Arketi Group, an award-winning digital marketing and public relations agency for business-to-business (B2B) technology companies, was honored as a finalist for Agency of the Year: Medium in the 2026 PRNEWS Platinum Awards. The category recognizes firms with 25 to 100 employees.
The finalist honor comes during a year of significant growth for Arketi. In May, Philadelphia-based Braithwaite Communications joined the Arketi platform, bringing deeper storytelling and creative expertise across integrated communications programs. Likewise, in June, Boston-area agency Sperling Interactive joined Arketi, expanding the firm’s digital capabilities with greater depth in web development, systems integration, and artificial intelligence.
“Our clients need a partner that can turn a strong strategy into integrated marketing and communications that drive business growth,” said Mike Neumeier, APR, CEO of Arketi Group. “That’s what we’re building at Arketi. Braithwaite and Sperling strengthen the creative and technical expertise behind that work, and this recognition reflects our team’s talent and commitment to delivering results for clients.”
The additions extend Arketi’s footprint across the eastern U.S., from Atlanta to Philadelphia and the Boston area, giving clients access to a broader team of specialists working toward shared business goals. Together, the firms help organizations connect with audiences across channels and adapt to how buyers discover information, engage with brands, and make purchasing decisions.
The PRNEWS Platinum Awards have recognized excellence in public relations and communications since 1999. Arketi is a finalist in the Medium Agency category, which recognizes firms with 25 to 100 employees.
The finalist honor adds to recent recognition for Arketi and its client work. The firm was honored among PRNEWS’ 2027 Agency Elite Top 120 and Chief Marketer’s 2026 Agencies of the Year.
Winners of the 2026 PRNEWS Platinum Awards will be announced at the Platinum Awards Gala on Oct. 6 at The Lighthouse in New York City. The program recognizes excellence across public relations and communications, honoring agencies, in-house teams, and campaigns for their work and impact.
