Emerging technologies, AI, algorithm-based decision-making, and big data have created gray areas in traditionally highly-regulated industries. While the federal government, Congress and federal regulatory agencies, have previously taken a wait-and-see approach, they are now actively working to clarify those gray spaces through legislation and regulation that have the potential to significantly reshape multiple industries. Companies shouldn’t take a wait-and-see approach anymore, either. They need to serve as actively engaged partners with the federal government to shape the federal approach to their industry.

I work with companies that utilize emerging technologies and algorithm-based business models, FinTech and Compliance/RegTech businesses navigate the complex world of politics, policy, and regulation to help identify their policy priorities and craft advocacy strategies, build trusted relationships with federal lawmakers and regulators, and manage effective advocacy campaigns to build support for and advance their priorities, thwart detrimental initiatives, and shape the direction of their markets and industry. This is a bespoke approach in which I will become an extension of your team, either by serving as your voice in Washington or by supplementing your existing government relations team.

Federal policy changes can dramatically reshape growing industries. By engaging with policymakers, building productive relationships, and advocating for your priorities, you have a better chance of ensuring your industry grows in the direction your business wants to go.
