Top global lobbying firm Ballard Partners is heading down under.
The Florida-grown powerhouse this week announced a strategic partnership with Canberra, Australia-based TG Public Affairs, giving the firm a foothold in the Asia-Pacific region and further expanding the Ballard Global Alliance.
The move marks another step in Ballard’s steady international growth, adding Australia to a global footprint that already spans North America, Europe, Latin America, the Middle East and parts of Asia.
The firms said the newly forged alliance will allow them to jointly provide government relations and strategic advisory services across the U.S. and Australia, offering clients a coordinated approach to navigating complex regulatory and political environments.
“We are thrilled to partner with TG Public Affairs, a firm renowned for its deep expertise and outstanding reputation within the Australian political and regulatory landscape,” said Brian Ballard, the founder and President of Ballard Partners. “This alliance positions us to deliver enhanced government affairs capabilities and strategic support for clients operating across the U.S. and the dynamic Asia-Pacific market.”
TG Public Affairs Managing Director John Brenton added, “Joining forces with Ballard Partners, one of the most respected lobbying firms in the United States, is a pivotal moment for TG Public Affairs.”
Ballard and TG said their partnership will encompass services including public policy advocacy, regulatory affairs analysis, public affairs campaigns, risk and crisis management, and international market consulting.
