Culture is everything.
We’ve built a culture at Acumen to meaningfully shape policy and deliver impact that lasts. It’s the Acumen way.
The Acumen way
We're really not like other agencies. We have a distinctive culture and a unique approach to the business of public affairs. Let us show you.
Built for you
Built for you
We adapt to your needs. Your pace. Your reality. All with agility that’s only possible because we removed the hierarchies, unnecessary costs and business models that cause inflexibility and crush creativity.
Vigorously independent
Vigorously independent
We’re an independent agency without any big corporate structure. This independence is absolutely fundamental to the energetic debates, fresh ideas and go-getter attitude that we’re known for and that clients seek in our counsel.
More than public affairs
More than public affairs
We’re all public affairs specialists, of course. But our talent extends far beyond policy and politics. Our team includes scientists, digital strategists, social media pros, former journalists and more.
Nerdy and we like it
Nerdy and we like it
Being a policy nerd is a badge of honour at Acumen. We do battle with long, dense and technical subjects everyday. We triumph because we’re armed with uber-smart talent that relishes these tough intellectual challenges.
Beyond Brussels
Beyond Brussels
We’re based in Brussels, but we think globally about your challenge, and act locally where and when you need it. This means you get flexible support at national, European and international levels on your terms.
No pitch and switch
No pitch and switch
The team at the pitch is the very same one doing the work. You get the top talent and expertise your challenge demands with the experience to deliver results. And if we say we can do it, trust us, we can.
At your side
We bring more than experienced counsel and a winning record to the table. We pride ourselves on being the kind of advisers you actually want at your side during your most complex, difficult decisions. We delight in what we do and look after our clients.
