Corporate Strategy
Who we are
In a moment of extraordinary volatility in government policy, independent analysis to sort through noise is critical. C-suite leaders, corporate development, government relations (GR), and strategy teams need forward-looking analysis to determine where policy is heading and how a company should respond. Not more information from a single source, but better, more comprehensive analysis and advice that can be used directly for financial modeling and risk analysis.  Â
That is what we do. We do not lobby or practice law. Rather, we help companies understand and forecast market and policy changes that could create business opportunities or risks. Our differentiators are our network, our unparalleled policy and sector expertise, and our track record of forecasting what policy means for business plans and operations. We live in the weeds, uncovering the risks and opportunities of next year, not just reacting to the news of the day.Â
