Size Doesn’t Win on LinkedIn. Bospar Just Proved It.

80-Person Agency That Out-Influenced Firms More Than 25 Times Its Size

SAN FRANCISCO March 27, 2026 — Bospar, the Politely Pushy™ PR and marketing firm that puts AI, tech and health companies on the map, today announced it ranked No. 2 among mid-sized public relations firms worldwide and No. 8 overall on Business Intelligence Group’s (BIG) inaugural 2026 Influencer Index, a data-backed ranking of more than 400 PR agencies across the globe.

In the overall ranking, Bospar placed ahead of firms, including Zeno Group and Ruder Finn, and within striking distance of FleishmanHillard, a global agency more than 25 times Bospar’s size.

Bospar also earned a second distinction in the same report, ranking No. 19 on BIG’s 2026 Most Engaging PR Firms list, which measures the quality of audience interaction, including likes, comments and reposts, relative to audience size. It is one of only a handful of firms to appear on multiple lists in the index. Read here for the full rankings. 

“The best way to understand what Bospar will do for your brand is to watch what we do for our own,” said Curtis Sparrer, principal at Bospar. “Our Politely Pushy ethos on LinkedIn means showing up with ideas that earn impressions and engagement. That’s the same award-winning standard we hold for every client.”

For CMOs, VPs of marketing and heads of communications who need their agency to drive real business results, the rankings carry direct relevance. Research shows that 80% of B2B social media leads originate on LinkedIn, and 73% of decision-makers consider thought leadership content more trustworthy than traditional marketing materials. The BIG Influencer Index measures precisely the behaviors that drive those outcomes, ranking agencies by a composite of follower reach, post volume, likes, comments, reposts and media points drawn from 2025 LinkedIn activity.

Bospar built its reputation in AI and technology. Today, healthcare and pharma companies are seeking the firm out, drawn by the results Bospar has delivered for AI-driven businesses. AI and technology produced the highest volume of professional conversation on LinkedIn in 2025, with “technology” ranking as the most prominent keyword across all PR firm activity for the year, followed by “innovation,” “AI,” “leadership” and “sustainability.” Bospar competes at the center of these conversations on behalf of clients who need to be heard.

Bospar represents companies navigating high-stakes moments, from product launches and funding announcements to category creation and crisis response. The firm is fully remote, operating across nine countries, and has been recognized as the No. 1 agency “pound-for-pound” in the U.S. by the PRovoke Global Creative Index.
