Our Story
In 1999, when headlines roared about the internet craze and browsers were the cutting edge, Donna Burke and Chris Hempel left their careers at Netscape to build one of the first communications firms focused on new technology companies in Silicon Valley.
They loved engineers and dreamers, and they hustled their way through the first bubble bursting to bring to market many of the firms that dominate our online lives today.
Over the past 20 years, we’ve helped define every major technology trend, from the birth of Web 2.0 to emerging quantum computers, partnering with everyone from pre-funded startups with a dream to Fortune 1000 companies striving to reinvent themselves.
We build and grow brands. We turn technical stories into tangible visions. We love to work at the edge of what society thinks is possible, convincing the world that it can change more rapidly than most people imagine.
Under the current leadership of CEO Alan Soucy, Spark has grown into an international technology firm with a global staff of communicators and advisors who scale growth. We work across blockchain, financial, consumer, enterprise, and emerging tech.
By working with us, you’re engaging a team and our firm as a whole – and we commit to bringing our decades of experience to help you focus on what you do best. We’ll take care of making sure the world sees the result.
