STRONG PR, Marketing and Events is celebrating a significant milestone this June as the agency marks its fourth birthday.
Founded in 2022 by events specialist Herkie Du Preez and media personality and entrepreneur Mika Stefano, STRONG PR, Marketing and Events has grown from a boutique agency into a dynamic, multi-faceted business known for delivering meaningful campaigns, memorable events and powerful brand experiences.
Over the past four years, the agency has evolved into a fully integrated umbrella brand, with the successful launch of STRONG Event Décor and STRONG Coffee, both of which have become respected businesses in their own right while complementing the agency’s core offering.
Since its inception, STRONG PR has worked with an impressive portfolio of clients across various industries, bringing together public relations, marketing, events, content creation, décor and hospitality to create experiences that leave a lasting impression.
At the heart of the business is a simple philosophy: people connect with people.
In an increasingly digital world driven by artificial intelligence, automation and online interactions, STRONG PR continues to champion the value of genuine human connection. Whether through a conference, networking event, media campaign, coffee experience or creative installation, the agency believes every project should have a purpose and every interaction should tell a story.
According to Co-Founder Herkie Du Preez, the agency’s greatest achievement has been the relationships built along the way.
“One of the things I am most proud of is the trust our clients place in us. Many of the relationships we started building four years ago are still growing today. We don’t see ourselves as suppliers; we see ourselves as partners. Every event, campaign and project is an opportunity to strengthen relationships and create something memorable together. The last four years have been incredible, and we’re only getting started.”
For Co-Founder Mika Stefano, the journey has always been about creating experiences that bring people together.
“We’ve never wanted to be the agency that simply ticks boxes. We’ve always believed that the best campaigns, events and experiences make people feel something. Four years later, that belief hasn’t changed. Whether we’re designing a space, launching a campaign or serving coffee at an event, it’s always about creating moments where people can connect, share stories and build relationships. I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve built and even more excited about what’s still to come.”
Known for its energetic approach, fresh thinking and willingness to challenge traditional ways of doing things, STRONG PR has earned a reputation for creating work that is both creative and purposeful. From large-scale conferences and brand activations to public relations campaigns, content creation and event experiences, the agency continues to focus on helping brands tell their stories in meaningful ways.
As STRONG PR celebrates this milestone, the team remains committed to innovation, creativity and connection while continuing to expand its offering across public relations, marketing, events, décor, coffee experiences and content creation.
Four years down. Many more stories to tell.
