Key Strengths

Publyon’s international team of 50+ public affairs experts is our biggest strength. Our added value lies in our multilevel approach: local, regional, national, and European. This enables us to offer one point of contact for strategic alignment and practical execution, independent of the policy level.

With offices in the Benelux region, we are equipped to support clients across the entire policy lifecycle, from agenda-setting and influencing decision-making, to translating and implementing policies while strategically shifting between local, national and European policy levels.

At our Brussels office, we are laser-focused on the key priorities of the European Union: clean energy, industrial and technological transition. We lead the way in these areas by leveraging our expertise and network to help clients thrive in the fast-paced, ever-changing EU policy landscape, identifying the risks and opportunities associated with new and existing legislation.

Publyon’s ambition is to help our clients succeed. With our insights into policy and societal trends, we help them anticipate change, influence outcomes, and remain future proof. We have the expertise and passion to support companies and organisations attain their goals.

Thought Leadership

Part of our mission is to connect companies and organizations with EU policy initiatives that are shaping the future society that is digital and sustainable. In 2021, Dr2 Consultants organized webinars with distinguished policy-makers, think tanks and industry representatives and launched its dedicated Fit for 55 services, which offer targeted solutions to navigate the evolving policy environment at EU level and anticipate the impact of the Fit for 55 package proposed by the European Commission. In 2022, Dr2 Consultants is celebrating its 10^th anniversary and on this occasion we plan to organize a series of events and launch our trend report that looks back on the development of the EU policy in the last decade and reflect on the vision how it would evolve in the coming ten years. Finally, the Dr2 Academy offers a curriculum of tailor-made EU Affairs trainings and one-on-one coaching sessions to help organizations navigate the EU maze and empower individuals to operate effectively at EU level. Leveraging on our extensive experience in providing trainings and coaching to organizations across different industries, the Dr2 Academy services can be tailored to your needs.
