Last Thursday, we honored the iconic 2026 inductees with a gala celebration! It was a truly special night for all who attended, as we gathered PR/comms colleagues to raise a toast to PR legends.

Following individual videos that highlighted the storied careers of each honoree, we cheered on as The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's Torod Neptune, University of Florida's Pat Ford, Johnson & Johnson's Vanessa Broadhurst, FleishmanHillard's John Saunders, Real Chemistry's Jim Weiss and Ruder Finn, Inc.'s Kathy Bloomgarden each took to the stage with their walkup songs, accepted their awards and shared some words with the audience.

The night was an epic event that was well-deserved for the epic careers of this year's honorees.

Congratulations again to the 2026 class. And thank you to all who joined us, and to our sponsors who helped make the night so special! IW Group, Johnson & Johnson, PR Council, Real Chemistry and Ruder Finn, Inc.

AI in PR: The Paradox is Real. You think your peers are using AI more than you are and the data proves it.

The inaugural PRWeek/Boston University AI in PR Survey reveals a critical gap: Comms pros are highly receptive to AI, but their actual, day-to-day usage remains very limited (Mean=2.80).

Why the disconnect?

The challenge isn't enthusiasm — it's organizational readiness.

We surveyed 719 agency and in-house professionals to pinpoint the exact roadblocks, from infrastructure gaps to leadership voids.

What the Premium Report Covers:

- Benchmarking: Who's ahead — in-house or agency?
- Infrastructure: Where exactly are organizations failing to support adoption?
- Strategy: How CCOs at firms like JPMorganChase are implementing guardrails.

Stop relying on perception. Base your 2026 strategy on proprietary data.
