This week, BAM clients landed coverage across Axios, Fortune, Boston Business Journal, IEEE Spectrum, and Tech Funding News. From AI’s impact on jobs to robotics, infrastructure, and healthcare, these placements highlight how our clients are showing up in some of the biggest conversations happening right now.

Here is a closer look at the placements and what made them work.

Percent Quoted in Axios

 

What happened

Percent was quoted in Axios in a story exploring a new tool that predicts the odds of different jobs being replaced by AI. The article breaks down which roles are most at risk and how AI is reshaping the future of work.

Why it matters

AI and job displacement continues to be one of the most talked about topics right now. The article highlights how desk-based and digital roles are especially vulnerable, while in-person jobs remain more protected.

Being included in this story places Percent directly inside a major ongoing conversation around the future of work: How does AI shape our workforce in the future. This topic is top of mind for businesses, employees, and policymakers.

Behind the pitch

Trend-driven stories like this move quickly, so being able to provide timely, relevant commentary is key. By positioning Percent as a thought leader in the AI and labor conversation, the team was able to secure a quote in a high-visibility outlet covering a widely debated topic.

Being included in Fortune places BusRight within a bigger conversation about how AI and robotics are rapidly evolving in the industry.

Behind the pitch

Piggybacking on major industry moments is a strong way to land coverage. By aligning BusRight with timely news coming out of GTC, the story positioned the company within a much larger narrative that reporters were already covering.

BusRight Featured in Boston Business Journal

 

What happened

BusRight was featured in the Boston Business Journal in a story highlighting its growth and recent funding, as well as the journey of its founder.

Local business coverage is incredibly valuable, especially in markets like Boston where there is strong investor and startup activity. Stories like this help build credibility with regional stakeholders, including investors, partners, and future hires.

Behind the pitch

Founder stories paired with funding milestones are strong stories for business journals. By tying BusRight’s growth to a broader narrative around entrepreneurship and scaling, the story created a compelling angle for a local business audience.

Lumotive Mentioned in IEEE Spectrum

Technical outlets require a different level of specificity. By aligning Lumotive with a highly relevant industry topic and contributing to a technical discussion, the story helped position the company as part of the next wave of innovation in data infrastructure to those in the industry.

Health Universe Featured in Tech Funding News

 

What happened

Health Universe was featured in Tech Funding News announcing its $6 million funding round and its focus on building AI agents for healthcare.

Why it matters

AI in healthcare continues to be one of the most closely watched areas of innovation and growth. Funding stories like this signal just that and help position companies as emerging players in a fast-growing, rapidly evolving space.

Behind the pitch

Funding announcements remain one of the most reliable ways to secure coverage, especially when paired with a clear vision for how the company is using technology to solve a real problem. By highlighting both the funding and the broader healthcare impact, the story created a strong narrative for media.

The Bigger Picture

The goal is not just to land coverage, but to show up consistently across the conversations that matter.
