La Pearson PLC è una casa editrice multinazionale britannica con sede a Londra. È stata fondata come impresa edile negli anni '40 del 1800, ma poi passò alla pubblicazione negli anni '20. È la più grande azienda di libri di testo per l'istruzione al mondo e un tempo è stata la casa editrice di libri più grande al mondo. Nel 2013 è avvenuta la fusione tra la sua controllata Penguin Books e delle case editrici del conglomerato tedesco Bertelsmann. Nel 2015 l'azienda ha annunciato che si focalizzerà solamente nel campo dell'istruzione. La società è quotata principalmente alla Borsa di Londra, con una quotazione secondaria alla Borsa di New York. Sede della Pearson a Londra
