    • About Lighthouse Consulting Group

    Lighthouse Consulting Group is a government and public affairs firm that serves clients with ambitious policy and political agendas in Washington, DC. Founded in 1996, Lighthouse maintains a distinct expertise in the fields of energy and the environment. The firm’s practice areas also include the related issues of  trade, tax, and agriculture. Clients range from domestic and international corporations to coalitions, non-profit organizations and trade groups. Lighthouse offers expanded communications services to its clients through a strategic alliance with Purple Strategies, one of Washington’s leading, full-service public affairs firms.

    Lighthouse’s strength is in managing advocacy campaigns in which business development and marketing strategies are enhanced—or threatened—by political or public policy drivers. Lighthouse prides itself in being a “knowledge-based” firm that places a heavy emphasis on content, initiative, hustle, clear communications and follow-through.

    Briefly stated, our unique added value stems from three fundamentals:

  • “Lighthouse is not your typical Washington lobbying ‘escort’ service. We know from decades of experience that it takes more than a series of ‘feel good’ meetings to achieve client goals.”
