ABOUT ATHENA STRATEGIES

Busy intersection is crowded with people and cars on 5th Avenue and 23rd Street in New Yor

Built for changemakers.

Led by conviction.

Athena Strategies was founded on a simple truth: those who drive progress need more than access. They need allies who understand purpose as deeply as they understand power.

We partner with mission-driven companies, nonprofit organizations, campaigns, and coalitions to help them do what others can't: shape policy, shift public opinion, and win with clarity, confidence, and conviction.

We don't do performative politics. We do real strategy, rooted in values and delivered with precision. We are strategists, not spectators. Advocates, not apologists. And like the goddess we're named for, we bring both vision and fight to every engagement -- also with wisdom, strategy, and impact at the core.

WHAT SETS ATHENA APART?

Purpose. Power. Precision.

We aren't just consultants -- we're co-strategists in your fight. Our clients choose us because we lead with clarity, act with conviction, and design every move with intent. At Athena Strategies, your mission is our mission.

Our Services

Government Relations

Our government relations practice is rooted in experience and purpose. We work with clients to advance legislation, secure champions, and influence regulatory and budgetary outcomes. Whether it’s local, state, or federal, we know how to navigate institutions, build support, and get policy over the finish line.

Athena supports campaigns that matter. We provide strategy, power-mapping, and endorsements guidance to candidates and causes that align with our values. Our team helps define your message, expand your coalition, and chart a winning course.

Thought Leadership

Athena Strategies turns expertise into impact. We help clients become thought leaders by refining their point of view, developing compelling content, and securing placements in high-impact forums. From op-eds and speeches to panel prep and publications, we amplify the voices that should be heard.
