Hall & Partners is a team of unconventional thinkers, obsessed with how marketing influences the relationship between people, brands, and culture. Born out of ad land, we are the insight agency known for weaving creativity with science.

We distil data through a strategic lens to reveal ‘uncommon insights’ – human truths tailored to individual brands, not black box data available to the masses. We partner with clients to shape brand strategy and optimise marketing performance. Our award-winning approach amplifies insights across every business area, propelling marketing decision-making to create an unmatched competitive advantage.

We do this for an eclectic group of brands, including 29 of Interbrand’s Top 50 Best Brands and 16 of the top 20 biopharmaceutical companies.

Hall & Partners is an uncommon insight agency that specialises in brand strategy, brand performance measurement, and campaign performance research.
