Meet Chad Teixeira, the London PR Founder Building Influence Across Borders

London has long been one of the world’s most influential centres for media, culture and communications. It is also the city from which PR entrepreneur Chad Teixeira has built a career connecting ambitious brands and public figures with audiences across the UK and internationally.

Teixeira is the founder and CEO of Chad Teixeira Media, known as CTM, a London-led public relations agency specialising in hospitality, travel, talent, beauty, health and lifestyle. From global businesses to emerging founders and recognised personalities, the agency works across industries united by a need for credible visibility and a strong public identity.

Rather than confining itself to one traditional PR category, CTM operates at the intersection of culture, influence and reputation. Its work spans media relations, brand strategy, talent management, events and social media, creating campaigns designed to support wider commercial and cultural relevance.

Teixeira’s experience includes working with multinational names such as Virgin, Marriott International, FIFA and Aldi. These roles and relationships have given him insight into the demands of globally recognised organisations, while his work with independent companies has allowed him to bring that same strategic thinking to ambitious brands at an earlier stage of growth.

Although London remains central to CTM’s identity, its outlook is distinctly international. The agency works across the UK, Europe, the Middle East and Asia, navigating markets in which media expectations, cultural conversations and consumer priorities can differ significantly.

For Teixeira, international PR is not about reproducing the same campaign in every country. It requires understanding how a story should be positioned for each audience while preserving the identity of the person or business behind it.

That global perspective has become particularly valuable within hospitality, travel and lifestyle. As brands compete for attention in an increasingly crowded market, attractive imagery or a polished launch is rarely enough. They need a clear point of view, credible storytelling and a reason to become part of a broader cultural conversation.

This is where CTM’s approach is most apparent. The agency looks beyond immediate announcements to identify the founder stories, expert insights, industry trends and human experiences capable of building longer-term recognition. The aim is not simply to generate attention, but to establish why a client matters within its sector.

Teixeira believes effective public relations begins with finding what is genuinely distinctive and translating it into a story that holds editorial value. In a media environment saturated with content, relevance, authority and timing have become more important than visibility for visibility’s sake.

This philosophy has helped CTM deliver coverage across national newspapers, magazines, digital publications, broadcast platforms and international media. Its campaigns range from major interviews and front covers to business profiles, expert commentary and destination-led editorial features.

Alongside leading the agency, Teixeira has developed his own career in journalism and commentary. His work has appeared across titles including Forbes, City A.M, Daily Mail, LBC, Business Insider, The Sun and luxury lifestyle publications.

This dual perspective gives him an unusually direct understanding of both sides of the media relationship. As an agency founder, he understands what businesses want to communicate. As a journalist and editor, he recognises what a publication and its readers actually need.

That editorial awareness shapes how CTM approaches every story. A successful pitch cannot exist simply to repeat a company message. It must respond to the news agenda, offer something meaningful and demonstrate a clear understanding of the audience it hopes to reach.

As CTM continues to expand, London remains its strategic and creative centre. The capital offers access not only to a powerful media landscape, but to the cultural movements and conversations that influence audiences far beyond the UK.

In an industry often characterised by noise, Teixeira is building an agency around something more considered: strong relationships, international understanding and stories with genuine influence. From London to markets across Europe, the Middle East and Asia, CTM’s evolution reflects both the increasingly borderless nature of modern communications and the ambitions of the founder behind it.
