Who we work with | Atalanta

How we work with the public sector

Multilateral organisations

We work with leading multilateral organisations including development finance institutions, UN agencies, and other intergovernmental institutions to mobilise global action on some of the biggest challenges facing societies. We support them in mapping and understanding complex stakeholder networks, navigating geopolitical dynamics, engaging key decision-makers, and shaping global narratives.

Bilateral aid organisations

We also work on a range of programmes funded by bilateral aid organisations. This includes a mix of strategic communications support and capacity building and training for programme participants or beneficiary organisations.

Government ministries

We support government ministries to roll out complex reforms and initiatives, helping them to engage diverse stakeholders, effectively communicate with their constituents, and build capacity within their teams. This work is often—but not exclusively—funded by bilateral or philanthropic donors.

How we work with the private sector

Corporations

Businesses are under increasing pressure from employees, shareholders, advocacy organisations, and regulators to consider—and improve—the impact they have on the communities in which they operate. We help companies identify areas where they can authentically and meaningfully engage to help deliver a lasting, positive impact. This includes advising corporate foundations on their messaging and positioning, designing effective corporate social responsibility programmes, delivering integrated communications campaigns, developing and disseminating thought leadership, effectively engaging the media, building meaningful partnerships, and mapping and engaging with diverse stakeholders.

Social enterprises & mission-driven companies

For companies with a social mission at their core, we also help them raise their profiles, engage influential audiences, shape compelling narratives, and drive broader change across their industries and societies.

How we work with the third sector

Philanthropies

We work with some of the world’s leading philanthropies to hone their strategies, define their positioning, engage critical stakeholders, and advance thought leadership in their fields. We help them craft and disseminate narratives with the power to reshape the way people think about some of the biggest challenges facing societies—and how they can be solved.

NGOs

We support non-governmental organisations to boost their profiles, mount effective advocacy campaigns, reshape narratives, and build internal capacity. This includes direct engagement with NGOs as well as projects funded by philanthropic or bilateral donors.
