From Visionary Founder to Empowered Policy Leader
"The business value associated with some type of government action, such as legislation or regulation, is around 30% for most industries and as high as 50 % for the financial sector.
In today’s increasingly complex business and political environments, the government affairs function is more consequential than ever.
Identifying and tracking important issues, fending off detrimental policy initiatives, or proactively sponsoring legislation — have a material and measurable impact on the overall business, despite not being tied directly to revenue." McKinsey
Don't fight legislation and regulations;
lead the conversation instead.
Public alignment with societal goals—such as AI safety, climate justice, or supply chain security
enhances brand credibility and can attract both customers and talent.
McKinsey (2022) notes that companies with early regulatory engagement outperform in market share and risk resilience.

As governments invest in digital infrastructure, climate resilience, and clean manufacturing, B2G (business-to-government) has become a growing revenue path.
The U.S. federal. government alone spends over $700 billion annually through procurement
and emerging tech is increasingly included in programs like the CHIPS Act and Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act.

Startups with SBIR/STTR funding are 80% more likely to raise follow-on investment.
~U.S. Small Business Administration, 2023
Government affairs strategies can unlock early infrastructure siting, permitting, and pilot deployments.
DOE demonstration grants, USDA bio-manufacturing programs, and state-level procurement pilots allow companies to get their tech in front of real customers faster.
Brookings (2022) highlights that early alignment with permitting and public sector deployment
efforts can reduce go-to-market barriers by up to 40%.
