Our Approach


Policymaking in the United States has become reactive, opinion driven, and overly political.

Many decision-makers and those supporting them lack a deep understanding of evidence-based approaches and the high-quality research needed to drive sustainable, long-lasting results in the public and private sectors. Years of experience is no longer all it takes.

RIPE does policymaking in the way in should be done. Our work is defined by the following set of beliefs:

Proactivity > reactivity: We anticipate challenges, positioning you to lead rather than react.

Bold thinking: Our firm is made of lifelong learners, committed to asking the difficult questions and searching for answers.


Our Approach In Action

By offering a suite of different services, we are well-equipped to support your in-house government affairs/public policy team, take the lead on a niche short-term policy project, or serve as your primary external government affairs team.
