InkHouse is one of the largest technology-specialty public relations agencies in the United States and the technology anchor of the Orchestra holding company. Founded in Waltham, Massachusetts, in 2007 by Beth Monaghan, the firm crossed $30 million in revenue before being acquired by BerlinRosen Holdings in May 2023; BerlinRosen Holdings rebranded to Orchestra in 2024. Jason Morris has served as Chief Executive Officer since November 2024. Beth Monaghan now serves as Chair of the Orchestra Technology Group. The firm operates with approximately 140 team members across seven United States cities, plus remote staff in 16 states. Orchestra is backed by O2 Investment Partners.
The Founder and the Founding Era
Beth Monaghan co-founded InkHouse in 2007 in Waltham, Massachusetts. The firm was built on three founding principles: storytelling, data-driven content marketing, and an employee-first culture. Monaghan grew InkHouse organically for four consecutive years through the 2022-2023 technology equity correction — the period during which most peer technology-PR firms contracted — eventually crossing $30 million in revenue before the BerlinRosen Holdings acquisition. Monaghan has been recognized on industry lists including PR News's Top Women in PR and the Holmes Report's Top 25 Innovators.
The 2023 BerlinRosen Holdings Acquisition
In May 2023, BerlinRosen Holdings — the public-affairs and integrated-communications holding company backed by O2 Investment Partners — acquired InkHouse. The transaction was structured to preserve the InkHouse brand and leadership while giving the firm access to broader integrated capabilities across the holding-company network. In 2024, BerlinRosen Holdings rebranded the corporate parent to Orchestra. In November 2024, Monaghan stepped down as Chief Executive Officer and assumed the role of Chair of the Orchestra Technology Group. Jason Morris — a 26-year public-relations veteran who joined InkHouse as San Francisco general manager in 2014 — succeeded her as CEO.
