About WordAppeal

Founded in 2000 in London and Paris by two former journalists from The Economist, Pelham Media brings communication to life – and keeps it alive – for top-tier businesses, NGOs and institutions, combining expert insights from its agencies WordAppeal (editorial & digital), L’Éclaireur (design), Alto International (language services) and KCO (events).

True to its roots, Pelham Media joined forces with Les Echos–Le Parisien (LVMH group) in 2016.

Pelham Media generated €15 million in revenue in 2024.

We have been creating show-stopping content, tapping into the alchemy between words, images and events, for over 25 years.

Because we are thorough and exacting, our texts are accurate and substantiated.

Because we are inquisitive and imaginative, our productions rise above the noise and pack a punch.

Because we are daring and determined, our events foster engagement and giving spirit.

WordAppeal is Pelham Media’s editorial agency. Our teams (from 6 countries) work side by side with communications, CSR, marketing and business departments at LVMH, Moët Hennessy, Clarins, BNP Paribas, Capgemini, Carrefour, FDJ United, Printemps, Salesforce, Thales, TotalEnergies, Valeo and many other customers
