EAST VILLAGE. is an award-winning Birmingham PR agency, working with tech brands that make people feel good.
Recently named “Most Innovative PR Agency” in the 2023 SME News Awards, we’re on a mission to create a more equitable and inclusive landscape for underrepresented founders through the power of PR.
We intentionally work with FemTech and HealthTech brands that empower people and promote a healthy tech/life balance. As well as the important organisations helping to feed the ecosystem and profile innovators and inventors. Through the TeamEV Charter, we also support traditional charities to embrace the power of tech and champion Tech For Good.
Our services include thought leadership, industry profiling and awards, seed and raise announcements, press office management, digital PR, influencer engagement, and so much more!
We’re leading by example by building an agency for a modern workforce
When it comes to creating equity and inclusivity, we aim to lead by example.
Our values are centred around our TeamEV Charter, which is the driving force behind our mission to be an agency for a modern workforce. We offer a more flexible way of working, place progression at the heart of #agencylife, and deliver perks that make a difference.
Our number one value is that “We put people first. Always!”… and we live by that every day.

Meet TeamEV
They say it takes a village, and TeamEV sits at the heart of ours. A team of passionate and dedicated PR pros, each member of the team has a wealth of industry knowledge and is driven by achieving stellar results for clients.
Our motto is that we always have our clients’ backs. Taking the role of critical friend, sometimes TeamEV says the things that no one else wants to, but it’s always driven by achieving the best possible results and helping our clients’ businesses to grow.
As an agency centred around team culture, people are at the heart of everything we do. From our hybrid approach to work and extensive mental health support, through to personalised progression plans that lean into every individual’s expertise. EV. is powered by the fantastic people within it, and that remains our strength.
We’ve built a reputation for being about more than just PR…
THE TEAMEV CHARTER
We believe that the value of a business lies in its values as a business, and that’s why we’re committed being better today than we were yesterday. The TeamEV Charter is just one way that we do that; putting our pledges into policy in every area that matters to us.
