Global Navigation Strategies
We are an advisory firm that helps clients navigate a broad range of international trade issues and competitiveness challenges by delivering strategic policy expertise and consulting services
What We Provide
We provide clients with unparalleled advisory services that allows companies to effectively compete in the complex and ever-changing global arena and deliver critical insights to key stakeholders trying to understand international trade developments.
Our integrated focus is on Small and Medium Size Enterprises (SMEs) that don’t have their own in house government relations teams and have also found that their membership in larger trade associations doesn’t adequately represent their individual interests. Many larger international trade associations and global law firms can often encounter significant conflicts of interest between their various clients, or worse yet, are beholden to their larger members often at the expense of their SME membership.
We have proven highly effective at advocating on specific and technical trade policy issues affecting SMEs and are successful at delivering impactful results in support of individual SME clients. As a small boutique international trade consultancy, Global Navigation Strategies ensures that we only represent a singular SME client within an industry sector before USG agencies or with Members/Committees on Capitol Hill.
In other words, as a valued client, you have our complete attention while we help you understand how Washington works and strategically navigate an increasingly complex global trade environment. Our customized approach provides you with invaluable market intelligence and increased predictability in order to position your firm to see around the next corner and even further down uncertain roads with greater confidence. As a result, our clients can effectively anticipate change, take compliance actions on emerging international trade developments, and mitigate risks in their supply chains before disruptions occur.
Should you wish to discuss any international trade or global supply chain issues affecting your firm, please contact us at Global Navigation Strategies.
