About Ember Public Relations Ltd
Ember is a PR consultancy for ambitious technology businesses in media, AI and the modern workplace economy. Clients are often founder-led, fast-growing companies with deep expertise and strong products, but a profile that has yet to catch up. Ember helps close that gap by building reputations, creating distinct industry positions and putting the right people at the centre of important conversations.
That might mean establishing a founder as a recognised industry commentator, helping a technology company own a particular narrative, or finding the bigger story behind a complex product, issue or idea.
Our approach starts with editorial instinct. We don’t begin by asking, what can we promote? We ask – what is genuinely interesting here? What does this business know that others don’t? What is the wider story, and why should anyone care?
Ember was founded in 2019 by Emily Bamber, a former national and trade journalist, and this editorial instinct drives its work across media relations, thought leadership, founder profiling, launches, content, events and awards.
Recent and past work includes:
– Profile building for the founder of an adtech company through sustained media relations and thought leadership as the business expanded through two Series A funding rounds. Its social following grew by around 300%, and PR contributed to a regular flow of inbound sales enquiries.
– Helping a leadership consultancy turn its in-house expertise into an external platform, positioning its consultants as credible industry commentators and introducing the business to new audiences.
– Launching an AI-detection technology for newsrooms, securing more than 30 pieces of international coverage and taking a specialist media product into a much wider conversation about AI, journalism and trust.
Ember has also worked on campaigning PR, including a programme that helped influence UK government policy around access to investment for female-led businesses.
At Ember, effective PR is about more than making noise. It is about making businesses more credible and influential within their particular niche.Peter Mason, CEO and founder of Illuma Technology, said: “Ember has transformed the way we communicate with the industry and the media, and we are seeing an increase in business enquiries as a direct result.”
Hannah Prevett, Associate Business Editor at The Sunday Times, said: “From the journalist’s perspective, Emily Bamber is a joy. She’s one of the most helpful and efficient PRs I’ve worked with in yonks.”
