It’s time for the Hive Five, Beekeeper Group’s newsletter that we hope inspires you with fresh ideas from our recent work, shares industry trends and events, and helps you get to know our team. Here’s what we’ve been buzzing about lately:
What’s New in AI & Interactive Strategy
Our new service offering pairs deep advocacy experience with hands-on AI fluency, helping clients use AI to evolve their advocacy work without losing the expertise and judgment that matters. From unique microsite experiences and creative prototyping to audience intelligence and message testing, the goal is the same: better decisions, made more nimbly, with less risk.
Award-winning Website Design for Securing Our Future
We’re buzzing with news: Securing Our Future, the consumer-facing advocacy program for the American Property Casualty Insurance Association (APCIA), won Silver at the W3 Awards in the General Websites – Cause Awareness category. The site relaunched in September 2025 with a mobile-first, advocate-focused redesign, and in its first full quarter, our audience grew more than sixfold and page views nearly tripled.Â
Serving with CARE, at Scale
When Responsibility.org needed to take their “Serving With CARE” pilot program national, they came to us with a tight runway and a big ask: a website that could onboard venues quickly, build trust across the industry, and educate both establishments and the public on responsible service practices. Using AI-powered technology, our team built a clickable prototype in just one week, then refined it into a streamlined sign-up tool with a single-click approval flow for the review team. Since launch, 422 member establishments have enrolled, and new members appear on the site the moment they’re approved.
Inside the Room: Beekeeper EDGE Dinner Series
This fall, Beekeeper Group hosted two exclusive EDGE dinners, bringing together senior public affairs, communications, and government relations leaders for off-the-record conversations about where the industry is headed. The discussions were candid, wide-ranging, and a preview of the thinking behind Beekeeper EDGE, our new strategic advisory offering.
