Andrew Bloch Joins Folgate Advisors
(MENAFN- PRovoke)
LONDON - PR industry veteran Andrew Bloch has joined Folgate Advisors as an independent expert to strengthen the advisory network's capabilities in M&A support and to help develop a talent and influencer offer.
Bloch is the latest addition to the fast-growing Folgate Advisors network founded in October 2024 by three former Omnicom executives, David Gallagher, Mark Hume and Dave Scott. After adding 21 senior independent practitioners across a range of specialisms in January, a further nine advisors joined its ranks earlier this month.
After co-founding award-winning consumer agency Frank with Graham Goodkind in 2000, Bloch stepped down in 2020 and set up Andrew Bloch and Associates. His portfolio includes investments and board positions with businesses and agencies in the marketing and communications sector – including AAR , whose services include managing pitch processes across the sector – as well as consultancy for brand owners, holding companies, family offices and private equity investors.
As part of his portfolio, Bloch is a partner at M&A advisory firm PCB Partners , and will bring his experience in advising buy- and sell-side parties in agency mergers and acquisitions to Folgate.
In addition, he will collaborate with other Folgate advisors to develop a talent and influencer booking and management offering, bringing his experience as non-executive chairman of Big Dog Talent, an agency specialising in connecting brands, agencies, and TV networks with celebrities, influencers, and content creators.
Discussions are also underway to explore other ventures in events and content for the marketing and communications community.
Bloch said:“Folgate Advisors have built a bench of the 'Galacticos' of business advisors – the best and most experienced individuals in the world to help businesses deal with the pressures and uncertainty they are facing. I have been watching Folgate with interest and admiration from the sidelines since they launched last year, so when they approached me to join them, I jumped at the chance.”
Folgate Advisors co-founder Gallagher added:“Andrew has done everything we could ever imagine as an entrepreneur, thought-leader and innovator in the marcomms space, and having him onside as we grow the Folgate idea promises to be a real force multiplier for years to come.”
