Our Expertise

Corporate PR and Thought Leadership

Lead the conversation with a top corporate comms agency

Strong corporate communications are the foundation of a trusted brand. Whether you're navigating a crisis, launching something new, or building long-term credibility, we develop tailored strategies that shape public perception.

We don't just manage what people say about you—we help you walk the talk by cutting through noise, building trust, and positioning leadership teams as credible voices in their industries. Because in today's landscape, reputation isn't built by accident—it's earned through intentional messaging.

What is corporate PR?

Corporate PR is how organisations manage relationships with the people who matter most: media, investors, employees, customers, and the public. 

At Mutant, we believe the best corporate communications strategies are built in the good times, so when challenges arise, your reputation can handle the pressure. It's not just press releases and media coverage; it's shaping the narrative. 

How we do corporate PR differently

We're not your typical strategic communications agency. We don't send templated press releases and hope for the best. We work as your partner because we know that strong communications drive real business outcomes.

Business-First Campaigns

Every campaign starts with your commercial objectives. We build communications strategies around what drives you forward—not just what makes headlines.

Regional Muscle, Local Know-How 

With teams across Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, and the Philippines, we understand the cultural nuances and media landscapes that shape reputation across Southeast Asia. We deliver consistent messaging that resonates locally while working seamlessly across borders.

Integrated by Design 

Corporate PR doesn't live in isolation. We work across PR, content, social media, and brand strategy so every touchpoint reinforces your positioning. No silos. No handoffs. Just seamless execution.

Journalist-Led Storytelling

 Our content team includes former journalists and editors who know how to craft narratives that the media would actually want to cover. They sit with your leadership teams, ask the right questions, and translate complex ideas into compelling stories.

Always-On Reputation Monitoring 

We don't wait for crises to protect your reputation. Through continuous media monitoring and sentiment analysis, we spot emerging risks and opportunities early—keeping your brand ahead at all times.
