BOULDER, COLORADO (January 15, 2026) — IPREX is entering 2026 with a significant expansion of its global communications network, welcoming new partner agencies in Italy, Chicago, Las Vegas and India. 2025 strong demand for the network’s collaborative model and unique leadership development programs.
The new partners are Aurai Consulting in Milan, Bear Icebox Communications in Chicago and Magnitude of Change in Las Vegas. IPREX has also welcomed Talking Point Communications in India as the inaugural participant in its Cohort Program, a structured pathway for prospective partners entering the network.
Ann-Marie O’Sullivan, IPREX Global President, said the network is entering the year with confident momentum. “Welcoming new partners of this caliber strengthens our presence in important markets and adds depth to the expertise our partners can draw on. Each agency brings strong leadership, a willingness to collaborate and a clear point of view about how to grow. That is what keeps our network strong.”
The additions further broaden the capabilities available across IPREX and create new opportunities for partners to collaborate across services and sectors. Alexandra Mayhew, Executive Director of IPREX, said this reflects the growing depth of engagement across the network.
“Partners are coming together in more focused ways, particularly around specialized services that help them pursue larger or more complex opportunities. These agencies expand what the network can offer and strengthen the way partners support one another. This momentum reflects the clearer, more intentional structure we have built this year and positions us well for 2026.”
2025 also saw record recruitment enquiries from agencies seeking to join IPREX, reflecting the strength of a network that invests in people as much as business. The depth of the network’s development programs and leadership initiatives continues to set it apart and create tangible value for agencies of all sizes.
