What We Do
Turning strategic ambition into concrete outcomes
We intervene at the level that best fits your situation, adapting our engagement to the complexity, urgency, and stakes you face.
1. Strategy & Policy Advisory
When you need long-term direction, structure and alignment
Over years of advisory missions at the highest level, we have refined a systematic, results-oriented method built around four integrated phases: we analyze your situation, we formulate actionable recommendations, we support their implementation, and we help you communicate effectively around them.
How we work with you
We start by building a thorough understanding of where you stand and what you face. This includes a detailed diagnostic of your challenges and opportunities, in terms of strategic positioning, operations, and communications, as well as a synthesis of all reference reports and data relevant to your objectives.
We conduct benchmark analysis to identify best practices and pitfalls to avoid, and carry out a comprehensive risk assessment across political, economic, geopolitical, social, technological, health, and environmental dimensions. We also map all key stakeholders – governmental, corporate, financial, and civil society – who may influence or impact your goals.
On this basis, we develop motivated, actionable recommendations equipped with everything you need to make informed decisions — budget, agenda, risk assessment, and clear milestones.
Depending on your needs, this may take different forms:
- Long-term strategic vision providing direction and coherence over several years
- Detailed strategic plan covering sectoral strategies, national development plans, outreach strategies, or new business development;
- Full public or sectoral policies on topics such as economic diversification, environment, infrastructure, international relations and attractiveness, innovation, education, or healthcare
Because we strongly believe in the recommendations we deliver, we stay by your side when it comes to turning them into reality. We structure implementation roadmaps with clear milestones, we build concrete engagement plans with key stakeholders and partners, participate in field trips and meetings, and provide operational support during negotiations.
When obstacles arise, we develop follow-up and action plans to overcome them and keep the execution on track.
Strategic impact also depends on how your decisions are communicated. We help you identify the right communication themes for advocacy and influence, design internal and external communication plans, produce content — Op-Eds, press releases, letters — and prepare materials for events such as business forums, roadshows, and high-level gatherings.
Our work does not stop at recommendations. We remain engaged to ensure that your strategic choices translate into operational reality — through implementation and beyond.

2. Cabinet-Type Advisory
When you need execution, speed and presence
How we work
We keep a regular watch on the themes and geographies that matter to you, at a pace adapted to your calendar and priorities. We deliver detailed memos or reports on request — covering your immediate concerns or the broader international situation — accompanied by operational recommendations.
We proactively surface quick wins and structural opportunities to support your ambitions, and provide real-time analysis of emerging risks, opportunities, and geopolitical developments.
We carry out systematic and urgent review of your key documentation — draft policies, legal documents, LOIs, MoUs, speeches, sectoral strategies, communication content, letters, decks, and more.
We coordinate production with your local teams and ensure quality assurance ahead of your critical milestones — Board meetings, General Assemblies, Roadshows, and other high-stakes events.
We prepare memos, talking points, and briefing notes ahead of your key meetings or visits. We draft decrees, policy papers, regulatory texts, and concept notes for new initiatives.
We also produce communication materials and short decision-support reports — benchmarks, best practices analysis, economic analysis — as well as high-level agendas and content for official meetings.
We provide permanent, on-the-ground support to presidential and ministerial cabinets or senior management on strategic tasks.
We join you on field trips to gather insights or data, participate in your meetings, roadshows, and negotiations, and facilitate discussions when needed.
Our cabinet-type model allows us to react quickly, adapt continuously, and support you through both planned and unforeseen challenges.
What this delivers
- Increased execution capacity without expanding permanent teams
- Faster, better-informed decision-making
- Greater consistency and quality across critical deliverables
- Seamless coordination with your teams and quality assurance at every milestone
- Advisors who understand your context, share your daily burden, and act with discretion, commitment, and reliability
