ZOE AMAR COMMUNICATIONS LTD

What ZOE AMAR COMMUNICATIONS LTD does

Zoe Amar Communications Ltd, trading as Zoe Amar Digital, is a London-based social enterprise and digital consultancy founded in 2013 by Zoe Amar. The firm provides bespoke advisory services to UK charities, social enterprises and nonprofit organisations across five core service lines: digital strategy, AI strategy, digital marketing and fundraising, governance and risk management, and digital implementation and capability building. The company does not develop proprietary software; it delivers consulting engagements scoped to each client and executed by an in-house core team supplemented by specialist freelance consultants.

Revenue is generated through professional services fees from project-based engagements; no pricing is publicly disclosed and no funding rounds have been recorded. The advisory offering is reinforced by a portfolio of sector-facing intellectual property, including the annual Charity Digital Skills Report published since 2017, the Charity Digital Code of Practice co-developed with ACEVO, NCVO, the Charity Commission and other sector bodies, an AI Checklist for Charity Trustees and Leaders, and the Charity AI Leadership Accelerator programme developed in collaboration with Microsoft.

The firm reaches new clients through thought-leadership marketing: an active blog, a bi-monthly email newsletter distributed via Mailchimp, the Starts at the Top podcast, conference speaking at Microsoft, Buckingham Palace, NCVO and CharityComms, and media appearances on Sky News, BBC and in Third Sector. It is registered as a private limited company in England and Wales, founder-owned with no disclosed institutional investment, and described in the input data as actively operating with no acquisition, closure or listing events identified.
