Racepoint Global Appoints Bill Davies CEO Following Recent Top 10 US Ranking

Racepoint Global is embracing a new era of leadership with the appointment of Bill Davies as Chief Executive Officer. This pivotal change comes as the agency celebrates its recent achievement of securing the eighth spot in CommPRO’s October Top 10 U.S. Public Relations and Communications Companies rankings.

“Racepoint has great people, great clients, and is doing great work,” said Davies. “Larry Weber has had an innate ability to look around corners for what’s next for the communications and PR industry for decades. Now is the time to accelerate both of these strengths and shape the future of technology-driven communications.”

Under Davies' guidance, Racepoint aims to elevate its reputation as a leader in integrated communications for tech-forward brands. Davies brings extensive experience in leading global marketing and communications agencies, including his recent role as Global Co-President of Jack Morton, where he collaborated with prominent brands such as GM, Google, Meta, Molson-Coors, Pfizer, IBM, and EY. His expertise encompasses strategic planning, operational optimization, and fostering global collaboration.

Fay Shapiro, publisher of CommPRO, expressed her optimism about Racepoint’s trajectory: “With its innovative approach with influencer marketing and AI, and its new leadership under Bill Davies, Racepoint Global is well-positioned to redefine the communications landscape. Their recent ranking is just the beginning of what promises to be a bright future.”

As Racepoint Global embarks on this new chapter, all eyes are on how Davies will capitalize on the agency’s strengths and propel it toward even greater heights.
