Cognito, the independent global communications agency, has today announced the launch of its new brand identity. Five years on from the last refresh, the new look and positioning reflects the agency’s growth and expansion across service lines, sectors and geographies to meet the needs of its global client roster. The agency’s client base comprises over 100 firms in finance, technology and professional services from the largest and best-known brands in the industry to dynamic start and scale ups.

The new brand design reflects the agency’s unique approach to solving business challenges, commitment to innovation and bringing new thinking and ideas to clients and the industry. It’s also an expression of the different perspectives and experiences Cognito holds across its global team; speaking over 20 languages, from over 15 countries from offices in the US, EMEA, and APAC.

Cognito has launched a dedicated Sustainability Practice to help clients with the Climate Transition. Earlier this year, Cognito also opened an office in Sydney to boost its reach across APAC alongside its core regional hubs in Hong Kong and Singapore.

Tom Coombes, Cognito’s Founder and CEO, comments: “The new Cognito brand reflects where we are as an agency, the services we offer, the geographies we work in and the strength of expertise we have. We know clients are facing increasingly complicated challenges. We believe that we can now offer unparalleled services across the communication and marketing mix. All our services and advice are designed for clients who work in complex and competitive markets. The new brand is a reflection of our appetite to help our clients thrive in these dynamic sectors and our ambition to be the agency of choice globally.”

New Research from One Biosciences Shows Single-Cell Profiling Can Identify Which Ovarian Cancer Tumors are Predisposed to Chemotherapy Resistance20.10.2026 14:02:00 EEST | Press release

One Biosciences today announced data showing some ovarian cancer tumor cells are predisposed to resist chemotherapy and single-cell profiling at diagnosis can identify tumor profiles that indicate which patients are likely to experience treatment failure, ultimately enabling more personalized treatment strategies. Researchers from One Biosciences, French National Centre for Scientific Research (CNRS), Institut Curie, and Sorbonne Université found that the cellular changes linked to the development of resistance to cytotoxic chemotherapy cannot be explained by DNA mutations alone: the functional and epigenetic state of tumor cells play a key role and initial tumor composition predicts overall survival. The study focused on patients with high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC), the most common and aggressive type of ovarian cancer. The disease has few symptoms, is often identified late and remains difficult to treat, with a five-year survival rate below 40 percent. “Ovarian cancer tumor

European Wealth Firms Build Private Markets Capability Faster Than They Communicate It, Peregrine Report Finds20.10.2026 11:15:00 EEST | Press release

Europe's leading wealth managers have built genuine private markets capability but most have yet to explain it to the clients they built it for, according to The Wealth 30, a new report from Peregrine Communications. The study analyses how 30 leading UK and European wealth managers and private banks position private markets. It concludes that communication, not product, is now the biggest barrier to differentiation in the wealth channel. Capability outpaces explanation 73% of the Wealth 30 engage in private markets yet only 40% operate a dedicated landing page explaining what private markets are, why they matter and how clients can access them. Just 23% combine explainers, a destination and repeatable house-view content. Swiss private banks set the benchmark, supported by house views, outlooks and heritage narratives. Pictet, UBP, Lombard Odier and Julius Baer all back their positioning with repeatable insight content, and Coutts is the clearest UK example. UK firms more often communic
