About

Social Unit is a media and growth partner for publishers, retailers and ambitious brands.

We help organisations with valuable audiences become media businesses, turning attention, data and distribution into scalable revenue. Our work spans retail media, publisher partnerships and paid media activation, designed to unlock incremental growth and future-proof commercial models.

Founded by Alexis Jourrou, former Global Head of Social & Innovation at Condé Nast, Social Unit was built on a simple belief: media works best when strategy, packaging and execution are designed as one system. Not decks handed over. Not disconnected channels. Real, operational media solutions that deliver results.

We partner with teams to build the platforms, propositions and playbooks that brands and agencies want to buy, then help activate them at speed, with performance and brand value working together.
