NewsMark Public Relations was founded on the conviction that corporate brand outreach is inseparable from storytelling that begins with a simple question: "Why does this matter, and why does it matter now?"

We are grounded in more than two decades of high profile media relations undertaken by our founder Mark Hopkinson, a former BBC-trained journalist and U.S. media strategist for the British Government offices in New York City.

The tried and tested techniques developed by Hopkinson, over sixteen years of helping promote Britain in America, are the foundation on which NewsMark Public Relations develops its highly successful outreach campaigns.

Whether preparing a chief executive for a television interview, coaching a spokesperson ahead of a major announcement, or shaping the narrative around a corporate crisis, NewsMark draws on the experiences earned at the intersection of our founder's former careers.

"Mark Hopkinson's guidance has completely transformed how I approach media interviews. His understanding of what journalists are actually looking for — and how to give it to them is invaluable."

These careers bring together countless valued media relationships cultivated on behalf of Britain's political and commercial interests, until Hopkinson resigned his post in New York City to join the private sector.
