Who are we
Mutant is a weird name for an agency, we know. We'd love to tell you there's a cool reason for it - like being exposed to gamma radiation or being bitten by a spider - but alas, our origin story is a little less dramatic.
We started in 2012 as a PR agency, led by one guy with a simple idea - to grow an agency that focused on getting business results and removing agency fluff.
From these humble beginnings, we evolved into a regional agency with offices in Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Thailand, and the Philippines, servicing clients across Asia Pacific and globally for their PR, content marketing, and branding needs.
(We've bagged a few awards along the way, too. Most recently we were named PR Team of the Year (Gold) and APAC Workplace Champions (Large Agency) by PRCA Asia Pacific!)
