The collaboration between EBONY and Allison is a strategic move to amplify the publication’s powerful and influential voice and expand its reach and impact in an ever-evolving media landscape. By leveraging Allison’s expertise, resources and network, EBONY aims to elevate its brand, strengthen its position as a cultural authority, amplify key event and initiatives, and drive meaningful and sustained impact with existing and new audiences.

“We are excited to work with Allison and its world-class communications team,” said Eden Bridgeman, EBONY CEO. “EBONY continues to produce world-class, Black-focused content with an emphasis on consistently showcasing the Black experience and perspective in a variety of ways, and our collaboration with the Allison team will further amplify our work, values and mission at this exciting time for the organization.”

EBONY magazine, a cornerstone of Black culture and history, changed ownership and is now published as EBONY Media Corporation. This transition marked a pivotal moment for the platform, as it reinvigorates the brand, expands its digital presence to reconnect with its core audience and connects with newer audiences, such as Generation Z. Under new leadership, EBONY continues to preserve its legacy while adapting to the evolving media landscape, focusing on storytelling that empowers and inspires the Black community.

This historic partnership will enable EBONY to further enhance its storytelling, engage with new audiences and solidify its position as a leading voice on issues affecting the Black community, especially during this pivotal election year. The scope of work will focus on promoting both flagship and new initiatives and programming, thought leadership positioning, campaign launches, amplified editorial features and corporate news, reputation management, event support, media relations and more.

Allison will also support the return of the highly anticipated EBONY Power 100 list, which recognizes the diverse accomplishments of individuals who have made a significant impact on Black culture. This year’s honorees will gather at the star-studded EBONY Power 100 gala in Los Angeles on Sunday Nov. 17, 2024.

“EBONY is a phenomenal brand steeped in legacy, authority and Black representation, and we are thrilled to embark on this historic partnership with the publication,” said Claudine Moore, Allison managing director. “This collaboration represents a new chapter for both organizations as Allison combines its continued growing expertise in DE&I client counsel and multicultural public relations and signifies our shared commitment to amplifying U.S. and global Black voices, perspectives and stories.”

Allison’s DE&I and multicultural teams based in offices across the U.S. will support EBONY, mirroring the platform’s country-wide initiatives, activations and corporate team.
