Japan's Leading Public Relations Agency
Kyodo PR is Japan’s leading public relations agency. Founded in 1964 back when the concept of PR was still in its nascent infancy, Kyodo PR has been a pioneer in the industry since the day of its inception. Able to handle the full scope of integrated communications in-house, Kyodo PR is your one-stop shop for finding success in Japan.
Despite Kyodo PR’s wide-reaching capabilities in the ever-expanding field of integrated communications, the core service offering of the agency is our excellent media connections. Simply put, we have deep relationships with all the influential gatekeepers at Japan’s most influential outlets. Thanks to these ins with the people in power, we get you coverage when others can’t.
While it’s true that there are a number of agencies out there that can offer strategic PR communication plans, few other firms in Japan can compete with us when it comes to media relations. At the end of the day, these types of connections in Japan can only be fostered over years, and Kyodo PR has a few decades of a head start on the competition.

Kyodo PR’s breadth of services extends far beyond just media relations. More and more, we are supplementing our core expertise with emergent ways to get the message out. From working with content creators in a way that ensures ROI to performance marketing, Kyodo PR has specialists at the ready to help you achieve the results you deserve.

Kyodo PR Leadership
In the spring of 2024, Kyodo PR's former CEO Tani Tetsuya handed the reins of control over to Masataka Ishiguri to focus on the entirety of the group. With a storied career in consulting and advertising, Ishiguri is now poised to lead the integrated communications agency at Kyodo PR.
In keeping with Kyodo PR’s legacy as a pioneer in the field of communications, Ishiguri has introduced a new concept for the company. Rendered directly into English as "New’s Design Company," the essence of the slogan positions Kyodo PR as the mastermind behind what you see and read in the news.
With unparalleled media relations and strategic communication consulting capabilities, Kyodo PR is perfectly positioned under Ishiguri’s leadership to continue shaping the media landscape in the years to come.
