Awards

ROKK Solutions has been named a finalist in two categories for the 2026 PRNEWS Platinum Awards: Medium Agency of the Year and Government & Regulatory Affairs for our work with Americans for Clean Aviation Fuels (ACAF).

For nearly 30 years, the PRNEWS Platinum Awards have recognized outstanding achievement across the communications industry, honoring the agencies, teams and campaigns delivering exceptional work and measurable impact.

ROKK’s recognition comes as organizations face an increasingly complex intersection of business, policy, politics and reputation. Led by senior executives with decades of experience across government, media, journalism and business, ROKK helps clients navigate high-stakes challenges with integrated communications, public affairs and reputation strategies.

“Being recognized both for the strength of our agency and for the results we deliver for clients makes this especially meaningful,” said Ron Bonjean, Co-Founder and Partner of ROKK Solutions. “It reflects the exceptional work of our team and, just as importantly, the trust our clients place in us to help them navigate their most consequential challenges.”

Over the past 18 months, ROKK has expanded its capabilities to meet those challenges, strengthening its Intel & Insights offering and launching a new Corporate Affairs practice designed to help organizations anticipate risk, shape their operating environment and protect and build reputation.

The PRNEWS recognition adds to a strong 2026 for ROKK. The firm was named Midsized Agency of the Year by the Bulldog Awards and one of PRovoke Media’s 100 Best Agencies in the U.S..

WASHINGTON, D.C. — ROKK Solutions has been named the 2026 Gold Bulldog Award Midsized Agency of the Year, recognizing the firm’s continued growth, innovation and leadership in corporate communications and public affairs. The Bulldog Awards honor the best and brightest in public relations and corporate communications and are judged exclusively by journalists.

The recognition reflects ROKK’s approach to helping organizations navigate the increasingly complex intersection of business, policy and public opinion. Led by senior executives with decades of experience in government, journalism, media and business, the firm serves as a strategic partner to clients facing high-stakes communications, reputation and public affairs challenges.

“This honor is a testament to our exceptional team and the trust our clients place in us every day,” said Ron Bonjean, Co-Founder and Partner of ROKK Solutions. “Organizations today need advisors who understand how business, government and communications increasingly influence one another. We are honored that the Bulldog Awards recognized not only our work, but our continued investment in building a firm designed for today’s communications environment.”

“This recognition our effort to build a team with diverse experiences and perspectives that helps clients see around corners and navigate increasingly complex moments with confidence,” said Rodell Mollineau, Co-Founder and Partner of ROKK Solutions. As our firm continues to grow, we’re excited to keep investing in our people, our capabilities and the innovative solutions our clients need to succeed.”

“This award is a reflection of the incredible people behind our work and the partnerships we’ve built with our clients,” said Kristen Hawn, Partner at ROKK Solutions. “Our team is committed to delivering thoughtful, integrated counsel that helps organizations navigate their most important challenges. As the communications landscape continues to evolve, we’ll keep investing in the talent, capabilities and collaboration that allow our clients to stay ahead of what’s next.”

Over the past year, ROKK expanded its capabilities with the launch of dedicated Corporate Affairs and Data & Insights practices while opening a new 20,000-square-foot headquarters featuring a state-of-the-art broadcast studio and enhanced event spaces. These investments reflect the firm’s commitment to providing integrated communications, public affairs and strategic intelligence services that help clients anticipate challenges, shape narratives and make informed decisions in a rapidly evolving environment.

The Bulldog Award marks ROKK Solutions’ fifth Bulldog Award and adds to a growing list of national recognitions, including being named one of PRovoke Media’s 100 Best Agencies in the U.S. for 2026. Together, these honors underscore the firm’s continued momentum and its commitment to delivering strategic counsel that helps clients lead with confidence during moments that matter most.

ROKK Solutions has been named to PRovoke Media’s 100 Best Agencies in the U.S. for 2026—one of the industry’s top recognitions for excellence in public relations and strategic communications. The list is curated through a rigorous evaluation of agency reputation, quality of work, client portfolio and financial performance.

As an independent firm, ROKK brings a full range of communications capabilities under one roof, led by senior operators who have worked at the highest levels of government, media and business. Grounded in a 360-degree communications philosophy, the firm delivers integrated strategies that drive outcomes for clients operating in complex, high-stakes environments.

Over the past year, ROKK has continued to invest in best-in-class tools and technologies to sharpen its edge and enhance execution. But tools don’t win campaigns—judgment does. While technology can accelerate analysis and improve efficiency, it cannot replace the experience, instincts and decision-making required when the pressure is on.

ROKK operates as a strategic partner to its clients—not an algorithm or an order-taker. The firm provides proactive counsel, anticipates risk and delivers the clarity leaders need to act decisively and shape outcomes.

This marks ROKK’s second consecutive year on the Best Agencies list. The firm was also recognized as Public Affairs Agency of the Year in 2024. Honorees will be celebrated in New York this May. The full PRovoke Media profile of ROKK can be viewed here.

ROKK Solutions’ website for the BRIDGE Coalition earned an honorable mention from the Hermes Creative Awards. The Hermes Creative Awards honor the messengers and creators of the information revolution who bring ideas to life through traditional and digital platforms.

The website serves as the central hub for the broader advocacy effort, helping anchor the coalition’s narrative, organize stakeholders and support ongoing paid and earned media efforts. We approached this project as more than a website; it is key infrastructure for influence, especially for the BRIDGE Coalition as they prepare for high-stakes policy battles.

ROKK Solutions earned a Silver Vega Award in the Website & Mobile category for its work developing the BRIDGE Coalition’s digital platform designed to serve as the central hub for a broader advocacy effort.

More than a standalone site, the platform was built to anchor the coalition’s narrative, organize stakeholders and support ongoing paid and earned media efforts. From early research and branding through launch and activation, ROKK designed the site to function as a strategic asset.

The Vega Awards, established by the International Awards Associate, recognize excellence in digital storytelling and execution across a global field of entrants.

In today’s environment, a website isn’t just a destination—it’s infrastructure for influence. When built correctly, it becomes the connective tissue across campaigns, aligning messaging, stakeholders and media in one place.

We’re proud to partner with organizations like the BRIDGE Coalition in high-stakes environments—and to build platforms that inform audiences, but more importantly help drive outcomes.

ROKK’s campaign with Americans for Clean Aviation Fuels (ACAF) was named a finalist in the 2026 PRovoke Media SABRE Awards. With finalists selected from over 2,000 entries, the SABRE Awards recognize superior achievement in branding, reputation and engagement, and we are grateful to ACAF’s coalition members for trusting us to advocate for sustainable aviation fuel and its positive impact on Heartland communities.

For ACAF, we built a surround-sound coalition campaign that implemented our full range of solutions. This 360-degree communications philosophy leans heavily on our team’s human intelligence; our client programs are built on combined decades of experience winning high-pressure political, policy and corporate communications battles, and sharpened with best-in-class technologies that accelerate analysis and optimization.

With ACAF–and all of our clients–we are proud to serve as strategic thought partners, providing proactive counsel, anticipating challenges and implementing ideas to help evaluate every angle before decisions are made.

The 2026 SABRE Award winners and agencies of the year will be announced in New York on May 5.

We are honored to receive the Reed Awards recognition as Strategic Communications Team of the Year. We are proud of the team we have built and of the 360-degree communications philosophy we deliver every day for clients across sectors.

As an independent agency, ROKK brings together a full range of communications assets under one roof: award-winning research, data and insights, paid media and digital strategy that are all led by top-tier executives recognized as leaders in their disciplines. And yes, we have invested in AI tools across these capabilities to sharpen our edge and strengthen our delivery.

But tools alone do not win campaigns. And while AI can accelerate analysis, organize information and improve efficiency, it cannot replace the hard-earned judgment, strategic instincts and well-rounded experience developed by executive teams that have navigated decades of high-pressure, battle-tested situations.

At ROKK Solutions, we view ourselves as trusted strategic thought partners to our clients. Our teams do not wait for direction—they provide proactive counsel, anticipate challenges and bring forward ideas that help clients evaluate every angle before decisions are made. That approach creates a close working relationship in which we function as a true extension of a client’s communications operation.

When senior executives join our firm, they are expected to lead with foresight and clarity—offering options, identifying the strongest path forward and seeing around corners before challenges fully emerge. The value we bring is not simply in reacting to events, but in anticipating what comes next and helping clients prepare for it with confidence.

Our team has been on the front lines of major political, policy and corporate communications battles that have affected millions of Americans. We have been at the table when critical decisions were made, advising leaders based on a deep understanding of how stakeholders, policymakers, media and consumers absorb and respond to information in real time.

Our defining advantage is not an algorithm, nor is it a product. It’s our people: a diverse group of communications professionals who create bulletproof strategies and execute with discipline and precision.

So when we sit down with clients, they can expect more than recommendations. They can expect proactive thinking, candid feedback, strategic judgment and the kind of trusted partnership that comes from knowing ROKK arrives prepared to help them compete, navigate complexity and win.
