Anticipate public action
Our monitoring unit ensures constant surveillance of regulatory developments from the very source of local authorities and national governing bodies. We identify draft decisions and developments likely to impact the interests, reputation or activity of our clients at the earliest possible stage. We provide our clients with strategic recommendations tailored to the political context, the state of public opinion, institutional dynamics and the priorities of decision-makers.
Impact decisions
We bring our clients into dialogue with the right decision-makers, using our in-depth knowledge of political and institutional ecosystems. We work with ministerial cabinets, parliamentary assemblies, administrative authorities but also influential figures in business communities, with a cooperative approach developing the necessary support tools along the way (sales pitches, white papers, etc.). During the examination of legal texts, we combine technical-legal and political expertise to help our clients put forward their proposals to elected representatives, administrations and law firms.
Strategic resource mobilization
We develop dedicated processes and tools to streamline internal communication on public affairs initiatives undertaken with our clients to ensure the alignment of all stakeholders. We identify and involve stakeholders with converging interests, providing general support along the way and working in dedicated task forces when the specific objectives must be obtained.
Lobbying training
Euros / Agency Group is a certified training organization.We support our clients in the development of their internal public affairs operations and provide extended training on public affairs issues to teams in contact with elected officials and administrations. We can design and set up a public affairs department from A to Z, including talent recruitment.
