Paritee operates at the intersection of marketing, communications and corporate advisory, and was founded in 2021 by Chairman Lars Erik Grønntun, previously Global President of Hill & Knowlton, together with a handful other industry veterans, all active and reinvested in the business.

Paritee currently owns Geelmuyden Kiese, Scandinavia’s largest full-service communications agency with 140 employees across offices in Oslo, Stockholm and Copenhagen, and Brands2Life, a leading tech-focused strategic communications agency with ca. 200 employees across offices in London, New York, Minneapolis, and San Francisco.

The strategic focus of the group will be on offering integrated communication services to high-value sectors, such as tech, energy and healthcare. The ambition is to grow Paritee through organic growth initiatives, coupled with selective acquisitions in key EMEA markets.
