About Us
Pioneering the Future of Impact Communications
+Media was founded on a simple truth: awareness is not enough.
In a time of climate urgency, cultural shifts, and growing expectations for accountability, organizations need communications that not only inspire, but drive action and deliver proof. We created +Media to meet that need with strategy, tools, and data designed for the impact era.
Our mission is to activate audiences and capture measurable impact through purpose-driven communications, digital tools and analytics—turning content into action, and action into lasting change.

Leading the shift from awareness to action
We envision a world where every story that sparks awareness also drives positive, concrete action—powered by data, strategy, and a deeper connection between people and purpose.
For too long, impact has been measured in likes, impressions, and vague sentiment. Our team brings together experience in media, data, storytelling, and systems thinking to offer an effective approach grounded in strategy, activation, and accountability.

Our Beliefs
Impact should be measurable.
Purpose-driven content should deliver results you can track, share, and build on.
Engagement should drive action.
Awareness is just the start. True engagement moves people to act.
Data should serve the mission.
Measurement is only meaningful when it reflects your goals—and helps you grow.
