Teneo Blue Rubicon is a London-based PR and lobbying firm formed in September 2016.

It was created when US corporate advisory firm Teneo amalgamated its recently purchased agencies – Blue Rubicon, Stockwell and Pendomer - to establish its UK operation.[1]

Services

TBR's services are grouped around four core ‘centres of excellence’ – reputation campaigning, public affairs (lobbying), financial comms and strategy consulting.

Brexit lobbying

Parent firm Teneo launched its ‘Brexit Client Transition Unit’ in August 2016 ‘to counsel and support clients through all of the business issues and challenges they face as part of Brexit.’[2]

The Brexit Unit aims to provide clients with ‘insight & intelligence’, help with ‘advocacy’ and promises to ‘help clients to ensure that their objectives and strategies for Brexit and their representations for future trading arrangements between the UK / EU are heard and understood by policymakers in government as well as regulators’.

It says it is ‘already advising over a dozen major clients on their strategy and approach on Brexit’.

The Unit comprises of senior Teneo and Teneo Blue Rubicon consultants. A number of its recent hires bring advantage to companies seeking to influence the Brexit process:
