Marketbridge Named the Top-Ranked, Fastest-Growing, Independent Global B2B Agency in The B2B Marketing Global Agencies Benchmarking Report 2026

Recognition Follows a Year of Significant Growth and Strategic Expansion across Client Portfolio, Partnerships, and Capabilities

BETHESDA, Md., Aug. 24, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Marketbridge, the Growth Company for Business, today announced it has been named the top-ranked, fastest-growing independent global B2B agency in The B2B Marketing Global Agencies Benchmarking Report 2026. Earlier this year, the firm was also ranked by B2B Marketing as the #1 brand agency and #1 demand agency in the U.S. in The B2B Marketing U.S. Agencies Benchmarking Report.

Together, these rankings reflect Marketbridge’s momentum and differentiated approach to building modern go-to-market (GTM) systems that bring strategy, AI, creativity, activation, and measurement together to drive measurable growth for B2B organizations.

The B2B Marketing Global Agencies Benchmarking Report 2026 evaluated fourteen global B2B agencies, ranking firms based on global gross income from clients and worldwide headcount. Marketbridge’s performance places it among the top five B2B agencies globally and as the fastest-growing independent agency in the ranking.

The recognition comes as B2B organizations increasingly seek more connected, data-driven approaches to growth, breaking down traditional silos between brand, demand, sales, and technology to create more effective and measurable go-to-market systems.

“2026 is a watershed year for Marketbridge: we strengthened our global platform, expanded our expertise, and introduced purpose-built solutions designed to help B2B leaders overcome the most pressing barriers to growth,” said Marketbridge CEO Bob Ray.

“At a time when many agencies are shrinking, we grew our gross income by 19% while expanding our team by 41%. More importantly, we are delivering meaningful commercial outcomes for our clients by bringing strategy, data, creativity, analytics, and technology together in one connected approach.”

2026: A Year of Growth and Transformation

Marketbridge’s recognition follows a year of significant growth and strategic expansion across its client portfolio, partnerships, and capabilities.

In February, the company was named agency of record (AOR) for LG Electronics USA’s Commercial Display and IT Solutions division. In April, Demandbase, the definitive pipeline engine for AI-powered go-to-market teams, named Marketbridge its inaugural Premier+ partner, recognizing the firm’s deep enterprise expertise and proven ability to drive measurable outcomes across industries including financial services, healthcare, industrial, and technology.

In July, Marketbridge announced a strategic partnership with Meltwater that combines first-party B2B data with third-party narrative intelligence to help enterprise brands strengthen AI-powered go-to-market strategies and advance Generative Engine Optimization (GEO) measurement and insights.

Marketbridge also recently earned the LinkedIn Ads Agency Certification with several team members completing certifications in LinkedIn Ads Fundamentals, Marketing Strategy, Measurement and Content, and Creative Design. The certification strengthens Marketbridge’s ability to develop impactful creative, build more compelling audience strategies, apply rigorous measurement, and connect media investment to meaningful business outcomes, including pipeline and revenue.

The achievement also reinforces Marketbridge’s position as a strategic go-to-market (GTM) partner for B2B growth organizations navigating increasingly complex buying journeys in the AI era. As buying decisions become more dynamic and involve a broader range of stakeholders, LinkedIn remains a critical platform for reaching and engaging buying committees, building brand credibility, and accelerating demand generation.

The B2B Marketing Global Agencies Benchmarking Report 2026 is widely regarded as the definitive guide to the global B2B agency landscape, providing marketers with a comprehensive view of leading firms across the market.
