About Copia
We have worked with listed companies and asset managers since 2005, building clarity between businesses and their investors. Our team combines strategic communications expertise with the data infrastructure to make it work.
Copia was founded on a straightforward observation: listed companies and asset managers need partners who understand both narrative and infrastructure. Not agencies that treat investor communications as a design brief, but firms embedded in the capital markets landscape who understand what analysts look for, what regulators require, and what investors expect.
We started in 2005, but the need for what we do has never been sharper. The UK equity market has a third fewer listed companies than it did a decade ago, competition for investor attention is intensifying, and most IR teams are operating with just one or two people. Companies that remain listed need partners who can extend their capabilities — not add to their headcount.
Our work →No single player in the UK market covers the full investor communications loop. We do.

Why it matters now
The UK equity market is under structural pressure. Since 2015, the number of companies listed in London has fallen by nearly a third, with over 150 departing the LSE since early 2024 alone. Domestic ownership of UK equities has declined from over half in the 1960s to barely one in ten today.
Most investor relations teams operate with one or two people, and a third have no formal performance measures in place. What is changing is how investors and analysts research companies: AI-driven tools are accelerating the shift, but adoption is held back by concerns over accuracy and hallucination.
Copia sits at the intersection of these pressures. We combine the strategic and creative expertise of a specialist communications firm with the data infrastructure — through Ticker — to ensure that the information investors rely on is accurate, structured, and accessible to the systems that increasingly mediate how research is conducted.

Long-term relationships
We build long-term relationships with the companies we work with. Most of our clients have been with us for years — not because of contracts, but because sustained partnerships are how you develop the institutional knowledge needed to communicate effectively through market cycles. When an IR team has one or two people carrying the full weight of investor engagement, continuity with external partners is not a luxury — it is what makes the model work.
