ABOUT VANGUARD

Vanguard Europe is a mission-driven company. Our goal is to empower clients aligned with the long-term strategic objectives that contribute to the European Union’s success on the global stage: strong coordination with NATO, technological competitiveness, strategic resilience, democratic consolidation, and security and defense.

To that end, we leverage cutting-edge expertise to generate in-depth policy insights and to effect high-impact change. We specialize in distilling nuanced policy and political intelligence, creating powerful long-term narratives, galvanizing mission-driven coalitions for effective advocacy, and building projects with strategic added value.

True to our mission, we do not collaborate with entities owned or controlled by authoritarian regimes or linked with extremist ideologies.

Our strenghts

DEEP POLICY EXPERTISE

We don't just understand policy; we've built it. Multiple times. Our team has drafted and negotiated, from lead positions, dossiers with a global impact such as the Artificial Intelligence Act. We know what's behind the rules, how they were made, and what comes next.

UNPARALLELED REACH

Our network is built and curated over more than a decade. It includes partners, top political contacts, supporters, journalists, and collaborators in the Brussels establishment and in major EU capitals, in the United States, United Kingdom, Japan, Canada, South Korea, Singapore, Australia, and Latin America.

EXCEPTIONAL CONVENING POWER

We have an extensive and nuanced understanding of the EU political and policy ecosystem. Our team has regularly engaged with and hosted top decision-makers, from heads of state and commissioners to C-level industry executives and investors. We know the right people and they know us, because we know how to add value in our engagements.

EXQUISITE DELIVERY

Our team has delivered decision-stage products for heads of state, governments, and top EU decision-makers. We are accustomed to treat everything we deliver as high-end final products with potential societal-wide impact, and we take pride in leveraging this training in everything that we do for our clients and partners.

LONG-TERM LOYALTY

We understand value is generated not only from bilateral engagements, but also from an expanding and engaged network. We go to extended lengths to leverage network opportunities for our collaborators, and we are continuously on the look out for potential synergies we could cultivate in support of their mission.

STELLAR REPUTATION

We've spent decades building long-term partnerships. Our team is known for its reliability, professionalism, and ability to deliver. We prioritize trust-based relationships above all else, and we go to extended lengths to maintain and nurture them.
