PRNEWS Recognizes GMG’s Client Impact and Communications Innovation

Being named to the Agency Elite Top 120 is an exciting milestone for our team. The recognition reflects the creativity, expertise and dedication our colleagues bring to every engagement, as well as the trust our clients place in GMG to tell their stories, establish their executives as industry authorities and strengthen their market positions.

Since GMG was founded in 2011, we have partnered with more than 300 venture-backed, founder-led and established technology companies across software as a service (SaaS), enterprise technology, IT infrastructure, cybersecurity, artificial intelligence and emerging technology. Our work has contributed to 30 successful client exits by acquisition and earned more than 100 industry awards.

Every achievement has been a collaborative effort. We are deeply grateful to the clients, partners and team members who helped make this recognition possible.

Why AI Visibility Is Expanding the Role of B2B Technology PR

The way B2B buyers discover and evaluate technology companies is changing rapidly. A buyer may encounter a company in the media, research it on Google or ask an AI platform to compare it with competitors—all before visiting the company’s website or speaking with its sales team.

AI answer engines bring those previously separate experiences together. Platforms such as ChatGPT, Gemini and Claude use information from company websites, media coverage, analyst commentary, executive content, reviews and other public sources to generate vendor comparisons, category summaries and recommendations.

A multi-source analysis of more than 680 million AI citations reported that 73% of B2B buyers use AI tools during purchase research. These AI-generated answers can shape which companies buyers recognize, investigate and consider before those companies have an opportunity to tell their own stories directly.

“Being named to the PRNEWS Agency Elite Top 120 is meaningful because the way companies build visibility and trust is changing quickly,” said Michiko Morales, president of Gabriel Marketing Group. “A buyer may hear about you in the media, research you on Google or ask an AI platform to compare you with competitors—all before visiting your website. AI now brings those previously separate experiences together, drawing on the information buyers encounter across the web to shape the same decision. The opportunity for technology companies now is to build a clear, credible market presence that holds up wherever buyers—or the AI tools guiding them—go looking for answers.”

How GMG Helps B2B Technology Companies Improve AI Visibility

AI-generated answers have created a new visibility gap for B2B technology companies. Many organizations cannot easily determine whether AI platforms mention their brands when buyers ask which vendors to consider, how those platforms describe their companies or which third-party sources influence the answers.

GMG helps clients understand and improve their visibility across the full ecosystem where modern buyers form opinions. Our integrated programs combine:

  • Earned media relations that establish credible third-party validation
  • Analyst relations that strengthen category authority and market positioning
  • Executive thought leadership that turns subject-matter expertise into public evidence
  • Strategic owned content that clearly communicates a company’s expertise, services and differentiators
  • Social media programs that expand the reach of authoritative brand narratives
  • Industry awards and recognition that reinforce credibility
  • AI visibility measurement and strategy
  • Generative Engine Optimization that makes content clearer, more useful and easier for AI platforms to interpret

As a premier member of the Brandi AI Agency Partner Program, GMG can measure how clients appear in AI-generated answers, compare their visibility with competitors and identify the sources and narratives influencing those answers.

GMG applies those insights to public relations and content programs that strengthen the authoritative information, third-party validation and clear market positioning AI platforms use to understand and describe technology companies.

What the PRNEWS Award Means for GMG and Our Clients

The 2027 PRNEWS Agency Elite Top 120 recognition reinforces a principle that has guided our work since GMG’s founding: technology companies build lasting visibility by earning genuine credibility.

AI may be changing where buyers look for answers, but trustworthy information remains the foundation of brand authority. Earned media, analyst validation, executive expertise, customer evidence and clear positioning give buyers—and the AI platforms assisting them—credible reasons to recognize, understand and recommend a company.

We are honored that PRNEWS recognized GMG’s work at an important point in the evolution of public relations. More importantly, we are excited to continue helping B2B technology companies become visible, understood and trusted wherever their audiences search for answers.

Thank you to our talented team, exceptional clients and valued partners for being part of this achievement.
