OUR OFFERING

COUNTRY INTELLIGENCE AND STAKEHOLDER MAPPING

If you are ambivalent about operating in a foreign country, let us do a dive for you and provide a candid assessment of the political and regulatory environment. From Baghdad to Benghazi to Phnom Penh to Rangoon we have had a front row seat. You will be provided a thorough, industry or project specific review with input from government agencies, trade associations, politicians, diplomats, journalists and other influential figures. We will size up interested parties, identify potential supporters, opponents and neutral actors, and determine their motives. We will apprise you of trends in the political and regulatory landscape, the protocols for government interaction, jurisdiction and policy making, and relevant policies and loopholes. You will recieve a comprehensive analysis of plausible scenarios, threats, opportunities, and the implications of a political turnover.

GOVERNMENT RELATIONS

If they haven't regulated you yet, they will. If they already have, the door is open for future measures that can impact your interests for decades. Make sure you are a part of the conversation when those laws and regulations are being negotiated. We will help you gain acess to the right decision-makers, craft a legislative agenda, present testimony to regulatory and oversight bodies, and develop a program for government, political and public engagement. Our strategies will foster favorable regulatory and policy conditions, fend off political opposition, and position you as a constructive partner of the government and the community.

CAMPAIGNS AND MEDIA

When it is time to meet the masses we will help you get noticed, control the agenda, and focus your message and resources on the audiences that matter most. We have produced print, broadcast and digital media in multiple languages and prepared candidates and spokespeople for major announcements and media appearances, including parlimentary and presidential debates. We have experience working with advocacy campaigns and political parties across the political spectrum in several countries.
