Our Approach
We are not members of the CIPR Public Affairs Group, but we operate to their Public Affairs Code of Conduct, ensuring our work is transparent, honest and professional. Our advice is strategic, practical and effective, helping clients secure meetings with key officials, respond to shipping regulation and compliance changes, or develop campaigns that resonate with decision-makers.

Public Affairs and Lobbying Frequently Asked Questions
What is public affairs lobbying in maritime, ports and rail?
Public affairs lobbying is about influencing the policies, regulations and funding decisions that affect transport and supply chains. We help clients in maritime, ports and rail put forward clear, evidence-based arguments that policymakers can act on.
How does stakeholder engagement support decarbonisation?
Decarbonisation requires collaboration across government, industry and energy providers. Stakeholder engagement ensures your organisation is connected to the right decision-makers, building partnerships that accelerate the shift to green energy and low-carbon transport.
Why should energy companies lobby in maritime and ports?
As shipping and ports adapt to clean fuels and electrification, energy companies have a critical role to play. Lobbying helps position them as partners in the transition, influencing infrastructure investment, regulatory frameworks and industry adoption.
