Same Team. Same Legacy. New Name.

By Yes&

Since our merger in 2022, Yes& and Lipman Hearne have grown together. Over that time, our clients have benefited from Lipman Hearne’s strengths in strategy, research, and creative alongside Yes&’s critical mass in media, digital marketing, social media, public relations, video, events, and design.

The brilliant reputation Lipman Hearne has built since 1988, particularly in service to higher ed, philanthropy, and not-for-profit clients, is now fully integrated into Yes&’s core offerings. The combined agency now benefits from the deep trust and exceptional portfolio of institutions that Lipman Hearne has built in early childhood development, higher education of every kind, and top business and professional schools. These are now a cornerstone of our combined offering. The work with policy think tanks, major foundations, and faith communities continues to thrive, and the over $44 billion raised on behalf of philanthropies and non-profits continues to grow.

Yes& and Lipman Hearne drive client missions forward in unexpected ways with a unified team of skills that cross channels and create change.

So we are excited to announce that we are coming together under the name Yes&. We are bidding the name of Lipman Hearne a fond farewell, and giving it an honored place in our history.

If you have not worked with us in the past, we invite you to experience the new and improved Yes&.

Positivity + possibility are ready for you.
