The SE10 story
SE10 was founded in 2002 by former industrial B2B magazine editors who recognised a gap in the market for a specialist industrial B2B PR agency – one that could combine deep industry knowledge with media relations and content expertise.
From the start, our strength has always been translating complex industrial topics into compelling, easy-to-understand stories that inform, engage, and drive action.
And we’ve been able to achieve this by hiring smart people who are naturally curious about science and technology and passionate about the positive impact industrial innovation has on society and the environment.
Initially, our focus was on storytelling through expertly crafted written content and media outreach, with our team – many of them former journalists – leveraging their journalistic experience and instincts to uncover strong narratives and fresh angles.
As the digital landscape evolved, so did we. Today, we also offer visual storytelling through graphic design, animations, and video production, supported by digital expertise in SEO, digital advertising, social media marketing, lead generation, and end-to-end campaign strategy, management and execution – ensuring our content reaches the right audience at the right time.
Alongside our evolving skillset, we’ve grown internationally, with teams in the UK, USA, and Singapore, enabling us to support clients on a regional or global scale.
This fully integrated approach to communications has proven successful, with several of our clients partnering with us since the very beginning – a testament to our ability to listen, adapt, and deliver outstanding work year after year.
We’ve also expanded the sectors we work in. Our roots are in construction, but today we serve a wide range of sectors, including manufacturing, energy, marine, real estate, packaging, material handling and more.
