Building a Strategic Vision

Lewis-Burke can help develop proactive visions and supporting strategy to translate vision into reality. Our experts are continually monitoring the emerging ideas space and nurturing the seeds of policy innovation, working with forward leaning clients to make progress on initiatives and bold goals to meet the needs of our clients and society.

Create Opportunities and Momentum

Some of the greatest opportunities in health and the life sciences fall in the spaces in between federal agencies, between scientific disciplines, between congressional jurisdictions, or in the divide between the public private sectors. Lewis-Burke can bring unique coalitions of stakeholders together, sparking collaborative opportunities and building the momentum to move client goals forward or expand new opportunities.

Aligning Priorities with the Horizon

Lewis-Burke keeps our finger on the pulse of the next big thing – where is the emerging science, disruptive innovation, or societal challenge that will capture the imagination or become a federal priority? We position clients to align with prospects on the horizon, so they can take strategic advantage of new possibilities and be on the ground floor of shaping the public narrative and strategic investments.

Profile Raising

Increased profile activities can lead to enhanced opportunities for agency engagement through workshops, advisory committees, and other events to help establish new programs, guide future investments, and inform policy making across the federal government.

Tailored Consultation

The Practice meets clients where they are in support of commercialization or innovation ecosystem-building activities by developing tailored analyses of agency perspectives and providing actionable intelligence on future federal direction. As a result, clients have successfully competed for numerous large, multifaceted awards across federal agencies.
