About
Who We Are
We are WSP, Inc. (Worldwide Strategic Partners) – a PR agency from the Philippines servicing various markets around the world with our global network of partners.
Our team of professionals comes from all sides of the communications spectrum (public relations, advertising, journalism, marketing, brand management, digital media, government relations, and finance). Together, we are passionate about creating work that sparks meaningful change through transformative ideas and influential content, leveraging our global network and solid experience.
Our Story
WSP, Inc. was registered with the SEC on October 2, 2019, and officially started operations on January 1, 2020. At the time, COVID-19 was already spreading across different parts of the world, including the Philippines. By March 2020, WSP declared an indefinite work-from-home setup ahead of the government’s official declaration of the first nationwide lockdown.
As uncertainty hit the country, we strove to keep our employees, and in fact hired more people to maintain operations. We continued to help our clients sustain stakeholder confidence through consistent and significant communication strategies.
It is this resilience and experience that shaped who we are today – a powerhouse in reputation management and crisis communications.

Our ability to shape consumer perception in favor of our clients is brought about by our flexibility and revolutionary thinking. We thrive in challenging situations. We see potential even in the smallest of things.
To create a strategic and effective public relations campaign, we at WSP thrive on transformative ideas and solutions. We digest various consumer perceptions gleaned from research. We utilize modern digital tools to customize our services according to our client’s needs and requirements. We listen, engage, and contribute to conversations online and offline, understanding consumer concerns and decision-making triggers. From here, we infuse educated insight that will create enhanced narratives for brands and eventually shape better perceptions.
