Who We Are
At Cooley Public Strategies, we solve problems through community engagement. Our team works with each client to find solutions that work for them, whether it includes engaging policymakers, building relationships with opinion leaders, designing and executing media relations, conducting issue or market analysis, or social and influencer outreach.
We have built a network of partners in 38 states that has given CPS the ability to shape policy at every level of government. CPS has successfully worked to expand public lands, facilitate government procurement projects and public-private partnerships, and assist Fortune 500 companies with mergers and acquisitions.
We bring a campaign approach to everything we do, and we play to win.
