**Who are we?**
Mutant is a weird name for an agency, we know. We'd love to tell you there's a cool reason for it - like being exposed to gamma radiation or being bitten by a spider - but alas, our origin story is a little less dramatic.
We started in 2012 as a PR agency, led by one guy with a simple idea - to grow an agency that focused on getting business results and removing agency fluff.
From these humble beginnings, we evolved into a regional agency with offices in Singapore, Malaysia and Indonesia, servicing clients across Asia Pacific and globally for their PR, content marketing and branding needs.
(We've bagged a few awards along the way, too. Most recently we were named PR Team of the Year (Gold) and APAC Workplace Champions (Large Agency) by PRCA Asia Pacific!)
So, what does this mean for you?
You're here because you want to help clients with real problems - whether that's increasing sales, improving employee retention, or driving inbound leads, real results are what we measure our success on.
