Our Mission

  

We want to deserve your confidence.

We begin by listening to a client and making sure we understand his needs.

If we think we can help, we move to fact finding and provide initial intelligence.

We wait until this stage before making a formal proposal.

 A typical mission often includes:

 1  We define realistic goals and propose a suitable strategy.
 2  We explain and navigate the complicated Brussels’ decision-making process.
 3 We provide traditional “big picture” monitoring and “soft sounding” intelligence.
 4 We help identify what type of message will be effective and assist in the development of position papers and other outreach documents.
 5 We establish contacts with relevant elected and appointed EU officials and deliver the right message at the right time to the right person.
 6 We find allies facing similar issues and help forge coalitions. This often involves serving as a “go between” with opposing parties such as non-governmental organizations. Our goal is often to achieve a compromise which benefits both sides. 
 7 We organise tailor-made seminars and lunches with key decision makers, setting the stage for presenting the client’s views.
 8 We organise grass root lobby actions in the European Parliament, usually in cooperation with one or two supportive MEPs.
 9 We reach out to Member State governments who are active on particular issues in the European Council.
10 We communicate with the press. We also coach and train client’s executives on either EU affairs or public relations.
