Middle Child - PR Internship 

 

Company overview

 

It’s no secret the way we communicate is rapidly changing. It only makes sense that

what our clients need from their agencies has evolved. It was this realization that

sparked the idea for Middle Child (formerly The Colony Project), a full-service

communications agency specializing in public relations, experiential activations, social

media and digital and influencer engagement. We connect with new audiences in new

ways to shift perceptions. It means breaking out of your comfort zone. Being disruptive.

This is why the Strategy Awards recently awarded us Gold as the 2020 PR Agency

of the Year, Silver in 2021 and Gold again in 2022.

 

Founded in January 2016, Middle Child has seen unprecedented growth in its seventh

years. From 2016 to present, business has expanded from 3 to more than 25 clients, the

team tripled in size and opened a second office in Montreal to service the Quebec

market. Today, Middle Child has two offices - one in Toronto and another in Montreal -

with affiliates in Vancouver, Calgary and Halifax to ensure coverage from coast-to-coast.
