Bright8 has once again been recognized for its international growth and impact. For the second year in a row, we have been named FD Gazelle International 2026 by Het Financieele Dagblad (FD), the Netherlands’ leading financial media outlet.
International growth, sustained impact
The FD Gazelle International Award recognizes Dutch companies who’ve achieved sustained international growth.
As our Managing Director, David de Smit, explains: “Most of our clients operate internationally, so it’s up to us to help them strike the right chord with audiences from all over the world. Receiving another FD Gazelle International Award is about more than growth. It shows that we continue delivering PR and marketing strategies that are tailored to a great variety of cultures, markets and industries.”
Being recognized again as an FD Gazelle International reinforces our commitment to helping a great variety of brands navigate cultural nuances, bridge industries, and build meaningful connections.
We are proud to be among the 71 Dutch companies to have received this prestigious award and look forward to celebrating together with fellow international growth leaders at the official award ceremony on March 26, 2026, in Amsterdam.
A very big thank you goes out to all our clients, partners, and our wonderful team. Your trust, ambition, and collaboration make achievements like this possible.
