MediaTech scaleup Pathos Communications has been recognised by Big Four firm Deloitte as the fastest-growing bootstrapped technology company in the United Kingdom, following its inclusion in the prestigious Deloitte UK Technology Fast 50 Awards.
The Deloitte awards celebrate Britain’s most innovative and high-growth technology firms, ranking businesses according to their revenue expansion over the past four years. In receiving this recognition, Pathos joins an elite group of UK tech success stories such as Deliveroo, Revolut, Wise, and Skyscanner – all previous honourees that have since become global market leaders.
Founded by tech and media entrepreneur Omar Hamdi, Pathos Communications has transformed the public relations industry through its pioneering “pay-on-results” model. Using proprietary technology and AI-powered systems, Pathos enables businesses of all sizes to secure top-tier media coverage – paying only when publication is achieved.
What makes Pathos’ growth particularly notable is that it has been achieved entirely without external investment. The company has been self-funded since inception, scaling purely through organic revenue growth – a rare achievement in a sector typically dominated by venture-backed firms.
Industry observers suggest that a capital markets event may be on the horizon, which could see the company open up to external investors for the first time.
In a statement following the awards, Hamdi said: “To be recognised by Deloitte alongside companies like Revolut and Deliveroo shows the potential of what we’re building. Our mission has always been to make world-class media access affordable, transparent, and results-driven – and this award is proof that our approach works. Every member of our team breathes the same entrepreneurial air in our office, and is hungry for more growth.”
Pathos’ recognition by Deloitte underscores its position as one of the UK’s most dynamic independent technology scale-ups. As the company continues its international expansion – with clients on six continents and a renewed focus on LatAm and Mainland China – Pathos stands out not only for its growth trajectory, but also for demonstrating that a self-funded, technology-driven British business can compete globally.
