Improbably for a group so young at heart, Text 100 celebrated its 25th anniversary overall and its tenth year in San Francisco last night, with an outdoor bash in Maiden Lane. Thank you to our clients, partners and media friends for making it such a fun night.

As Tom Foremski kindly pointed out this morning, it’s amazing how much has changed in our industry and in our business since our founder Mark Adams took a very young (and not quite-so-media-trained) Bill Gates on his first European press tour back in 1982.

We still had a parachute club as a client back then, and had only just vacated our first office next to the Black Lion pub in Chiswick, West London. And now here we are with 525 staff, 31 offices and some of the coolest clients on the planet. How did we manage it all in just 25 years?

Thanks again for joining the celebration with us. Here’s to the next twenty-five!
