Strategies helps businesses and individuals solve the complexities of dealing with the government at every level. Our team of specialists concentrate exclusively on government affairs, representing clients nationwide who need assistance with public policy, advocacy, and government relations strategies.
This unique program provides innovative and affordable opportunities to startups and early-stage emerging companies with a solid technology or scientific foundation. We help companies that have a quality management team in place and do not have other significant legal representation.
eMerge’s lawyers and technologists work together to deliver strategic end-to-end eDiscovery and data management solutions for litigation, investigations, due diligence, and compliance matters. We help clients discover the information necessary to resolve disputes, respond to investigations, conduct due diligence, and comply with legal requirements.
As part of Boston Tech Week, join founders, operators, and funding experts for a tactical conversation on how to turn “Uncle Sam” into your next big customer. This session will break down how early and growth-stage companies can identify the right federal, state, and local programs; win non-dilutive grants (including SBIR/STTR); and navigate procurement, compliance, and budgeting cycles to convert pilots into repeatable revenue. Whether you’re building defense tech, deep tech, climate, health, or AI solutions, you’ll walk away with concrete playbooks, common pitfalls to avoid, and practical next steps to start capturing government dollars.
