One World Associates Creates Global Footprint with Strategic Partnerships
Former White House Staff, Bloomberg, Gore Veterans, Former Journalists, Top Strategists Join Powerful Collective
NEW YORK, NY – July 9, 2025 — One World Associates, a New York-based strategic communications and public affairs firm, is now serving clients around the globe, with new offices in London, Madrid and Washington DC.
“The firm’s European presence provides expanded opportunities for clients on both sides of the Atlantic,” says Kimberly Spell, One World Associates Founder.
One World is now partnered with Milton Advisers, a London- and Brussels-based consultancy led by Alex Walker and Louis Rynsard that advises clients on strategic communications, complex litigation, political strategy, and stakeholder engagement globally. The collaboration provides clients with deeper insight into transatlantic public affairs, European policy, and global reputational strategy.
OWA is also teaming up with Guy Creighton at Topham Guerin, a creative agency operating at the intersection of politics and business. This partnership enhances the firm’s creative production, digital strategy, and paid advertising services, bringing powerful storytelling, persuasive design, and campaign-tested content capabilities to clients navigating high-stakes moments.
“Our goals remain the same but we can now do so even more for our clients,” Spell says. “We will continue to provide political strategy, media relations and crisis response but we can assist on a much broader scale - and help overseas clients looking to create an impact in the United States. And of course, our expertise in New York and Washington is unmatched.”
One World brings together an authoritative and complementary group of experts working together as a team across time zones and cities - equally comfortable helping clients in Africa or Las Vegas.
