Political Change, New Realities
Political change creates both new challenges and new opportunities for companies when it comes to the short- and long-term positioning of their key issues and the representation of industry interests. Drawing on our long-standing network and expertise, we help shape and support this process.
With more than 20 years of experience, we serve as a bridge between technology and the public sector. We identify political developments at an early stage, secure political support at multiple levels — support that is often crucial for funding opportunities and other forms of investment assistance — and actively position companies within the right circles of decision-makers and key influencers.
Our work focuses in particular on energy and climate, digitalisation, safety and security, as well as industrial investment and site development.
Our Services
A core focus of our work lies in Public Affairs. We advise companies on current political developments in our key sectors, support them in representing their interests, and work with them to develop concepts for their strategic and political positioning. Key components of our work include:
Political Monitoring
A wide range of political decisions has a direct impact on business development. In this context, we monitor current developments at both state and federal level, analyse meeting minutes, draft legislation, regulations and related documents, and derive concrete recommendations for action.
Stakeholder Identification and Analysis
A precise understanding of all stakeholder groups that may influence a project is just as important as keeping track of political developments. Based on your objectives, we identify the stakeholders relevant to your company or project. We analyse these groups in terms of both their attitude towards the planned initiative and their level of influence.
The resulting priority matrix enables us to develop tailored recommendations for successful agenda-setting.
Positioning and Agenda Setting
Building on our analysis and monitoring, we position our clients’ topics, interests and products at federal, state and municipal level. The targeted engagement of institutions, key influencers and decision-makers is a core element of our strategy.
We also bring people together for the exchange of perspectives and interests in order to create understanding, open up room for action and secure political support.
The interaction of these components makes an integral contribution to building the political support needed for ideas and projects — support that is essential for enabling sustainable business success.
Event Concept and Organization
Effective advocacy involves setting the agenda early and discussing solutions. We bring people together to exchange experiences, create understanding, optimize processes, and thus expand action spaces. Through background talks, symposia, and high-level conferences, we create new platforms for excahnging opnions an transferring knowledge. Our collaboration with renowned think tanks and partners ensures a consistently appropriate and reliable positioning of your company.
