Mathilde Chareyron, Head of Public & Regulatory Affairs

“Our collaboration with #SustainablePublicAffairs has already delivered an impact. As a frontrunner in the demand-side flexibility field, Sympower is working to accelerate the energy transition—and it’s clear that the #SPA team shares this mission. Their expertise, strong Brussels network, and creative, outside-the-box approach are helping us raise awareness of the critical role flexibility can play in decarbonising Europe’s energy system, and amplify our voice. We’re very pleased with the partnership and excited about what we can achieve together.”

Green-Got

Andréa Ganovelli, CEO

“We have been working with Sustainable Public Affairs to redirect the billions of euros still supporting the fossil fuel industry towards the ecological transition. Through the Sustainable Banking Coalition, and thanks to their policy expertise and EU network, we have been able to show there is an alternative for finance in Europe with truly sustainable solutions. This is a powerful lever for systemic change at the European level, and it would not be possible without the dedication of the Sustainable Publics Affairs team.”

Norrsken Foundation

Daniel Goldberg, Deputy co-CEO

“It’s been great to work with #SustainablePublicAffairs on the launch of Norrsken House Brussels, to build a platform for spotlighting the founders and funders who help make the EU a leader on both sustainability and innovation.

Xavier Sol, Sustainable Finance director

“SPA brings a strong combination of policy expertise and strategic thinking. They are a reliable partner for navigating complex EU economic files. Their ability to align stakeholder positions while maintaining strategic focus was critical to our work on channeling resources for the decarbonisation of the transport sector. I fully recommend their team to any civil society organisation seeking to strengthen its impact in Brussels.”

Cellular Agriculture Europe

Cellular Agriculture Europe

Robert E. Jones, President

“We are a collection of companies bringing products to market that can be perceived as disruptive and thereby polarising to some powerful interest groups. In #SustainablePublicAffairs we got a team with in-depth agri-food experience, credibility and trust with key stakeholders, strategic and timely advice, and tangible results in a short amount of time. As a bonus, the DNA of the company is rooted on a moral compass that is a rarity in Brussels.”

Karin Boman Röding, Head of Public Affairs and Strategic Communications

“We worked with #SustainablePublicAffairs during a critical phase of our project—preparing for our first-of-a-kind, large-scale plant to deliver permanent carbon removals in Europe (800 000 tonnes a year once operational!) where policy and regulatory certainty were key. #SustainablePublicAffairs played an important role in helping us navigate a complex and fast-evolving regulatory landscape. From the start, it was clear that there was strong mission alignment between our project and #SustainablePublicAffairs’ approach—both committed to driving sustainable industrial transformation with impact and integrity. They are friendly, fun, and very professional. We greatly appreciate their continued support and would recommend them to anyone operating at the intersection of innovation, industrial and climate policy.”

Euroheat & Power

Aurélie Beauvais, Managing Director

“Euroheat & Power needed a sparring partner to raise awareness of the importance of heating and cooling decarbonisation and shed light on the benefits of community-based solutions such as state of the art district heating and cooling systems. I worked with many consultancies in Brussels, but Sustainable Public Affairs is truly unique. It is a very human, agile team, focused on efficiency and results, and with real added value in terms of information, network, and strategy. Working with them is a very rewarding journey, and I would recommend it with my eyes closed.”

EcoVadis

Victoria Chartier, Corporate Affairs Manager

“As a purpose-driven company, we decided to partner with SustainablePublicAffairs to support us in aligning our values & mission with our public affairs strategy.

The team’s expertise, political know-how and creative approach gives us confidence to navigate a politically volatile and challenging environment.”

Opportunity Green

Opportunity Green

Aurelia Leeuw – Director of EU Policy & Brussels Office

“Opportunity Green decided to set up shop in Brussels and having the support of #SustainablePublicAffairs for our Skies and Seas Hydrogen-fuels Accelerator (SASHA) coalition in doing so has been an immense added value. Our work focuses mainly on decarbonising shipping and aviation through hydrogen-based solutions, and thanks to #SustainablePublicAffairs’ existing expertise and great availability, we were able to hit the ground running. #SustainablePublicAffairs opens many doors for us, keeps us posted on relevant developments in the EU landscape and provides valuable support for our first local hire.”

WaterAid

Alexandra Chevalier​​​​, EU Representative

“Operating as a one-person shop in Brussels advocating for clean water access, finding #SustainablePublicAffairs has been hugely beneficial to my work. I have collaborated with them now on several projects, and have been continuously impressed with their dynamism, their strategic inputs and proposals, and their overall service-oriented approach. You really feel that the clients’ needs are at the centre of their approach—and that they have a passion for their clients’ missions. I have found the team to be extremely adaptable, flexible to changing circumstances. Our collaborations have culminated in very decisive advocacy results for water access, instrumental in helping me establish a foundation for longer-term results.”

Since the beginning of 2023, we have been working together with #SustainablePublicAffairs on advocating for geothermal district heating and building a network and raise awareness among key Brussels stakeholders. We are on the mission to decarbonize heat by bringing geothermal heating as a service to millions of homes with district heating companies. It is a pleasure working with the team from #SustainablePublicAffairs – they are very knowledgeable and proactive delivering high-quality work and counselling.

Corbion

Sanne Verhoeven – Senior Corporate Communications Manager

“Public affairs doesn’t always have a good ring to it, so when we wanted to hire a public affairs agency, we wanted to be sure it had the same vision on sustainability. That is why we engaged #SustainablePublicAffairs, and it turns out that was the right choice! It’s great to see how their expertise and knowledge dovetails into ours, providing us the opportunity to propel the transition towards a more sustainable future together.”

LKAB

LKAB

Bo Krogvig – Vice-President of Strategic Projects

“At LKAB we lead the way to fossil-free iron & steel making. We have invested massively in sustainability, like for example in our HYBRIT process. In order to thrive we need EU policy frameworks to make our performance on sustainability the norm for the rest of the industry and we need to convince the Commission not to favor the status-quo. That means we have a lot of convincing advocacy work to do. One of our partners is therefore #SustainablePublicAffairs, as they have the right combination of knowledge on content, creativity and credibility to help us to transform our sustainability leadership into a competitive advantage. We believe that working with them also says something about us and our commitment to competitive sustainability!”

Novelis

Novelis

Mélanie Lambelet – Director Communications and Government Affairs

“As the world’s largest recycler of aluminium, at Novelis we are used to pushing forward sustainable innovations and circular solutions for our sector. Therefore, we have been delighted to find a like-minded partner in #SustainablePublicAffairs.

Like us, they are not content to work in the ways of the past and they share our ambition to shape our respective sector towards a more sustainable future. Our collaboration thus far has been an energizing and successful experience, whether through insightful policy analysis or by exploring new lines of communication with peers and policy-makers alike. It’s an inspiring thought that one day all public affairs will look like this!”

Niaga®

Niaga®

Sascha Bloemhoff – Marketing Director

“At Niaga® we redesign products for circularity, so materials won’t end up as waste. Ever. Together with partners, everyday products are designed with clean and infinite materials and reversible connections only. The Niaga® tag supports partners in the transparency of the materials used in their products, and enables the return, refurbishment and reuse of components and products again and again.

However, for reuse, repair, refurbishment and high level recycling to work ingredient transparency and standardized qualifications are crucial and still a missing link. For the circular economy to work they hopefully become the market norm. For that we need ambitious EU regulation.

To help us share this important learning on national and EU level we were looking for a PA agency that shares our sustainability drive and purpose and at the same time knows the policy landscape and relevant stakeholders. I must say that we are more than satisfied about our cooperation with #SustainablePublicAffairs. The whole team is very professional and pleasant to work with and has been excellent in understanding and representing our business, pointing us to the right information and opportunities and in connecting us to the right people. #SustainablePublicAffairs lives up to their reputation in every way.”

Climate Finance Fund

Climate Finance Fund

Marilyn Waite – Managing Director

“The Climate Finance Fund helps to mobilize capital for climate solutions across China, the European Union, and the United States. We decided to cooperate with #SustainablePublicAffairs to get foothold in the European Union as they know the European arena while at the same time sharing our commitment to drive change through supporting innovative finance and the systemic decarbonization of capital. #SustainablePublicAffairs has successfully assisted us with establishing an EU stakeholder network, as well as raising the profile of our work in Brussels. We look forward to continuing our cooperation on the Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion lens in climate finance, thereby creating a positive impact for people and planet.

That is why we attracted #SustainablePublicAffairs, they bring us the right team to be our ambassadors to EU policymaking. #SustainablePublicAffairs provide us their insight and expertise and help us act proactively. They navigate the corridors of Brussels on our behalf, helping us to stay in step with EU policies, and helping EU policies stay in step with us.”

The team is expert, enthusiastic and very well networked in Brussels. They are proving effective at supporting our effort to build relationships and raise awareness of the availability of low carbon cement, and the contribution it can make to accelerating CO2 reduction in an industry traditionally seen as hard to abate. Importantly their focus on working with frontrunners for sustainability means that our missions and goals are aligned.”

Their hard work and expert advice have proved invaluable.”

#SustainablePublicAffairs has taken up the challenge and through their expertise and knowledge of both processes and people in the EU public affairs world, they are striving and succeeding in fulfilling their mission. They also showed great flexibility in adapting to our needs and building the expertise of their team to provide the best support to us.

Working with the team of #SustainablePublicAffairs was definitely a success story for us, and we are grateful for the continuous and hard work they have put in helping us achieve our goals.”

AGC Glass Europe

AGC Glass Europe

Niels Schreuder – Public Affairs & Communication

“Knowing the EU public affairs scene quite well, I was surprised by the audacity of Willem Vriesendorp to start a new and independent public affairs consultancy, breaking away from the traditional ones. Instead of accepting any work possible, they carefully judge which causes they will work on. Personally, I appreciate #SustainablePublicAffairs for the ability they’ve shown to bring us in touch with peers and like-minded clients, among which are pioneers and trendsetters in the field of renewable and sustainable energy solutions. It is amazing that just months after starting, they are so influential and successful already, and … this is just the beginning!”

Jules Besnainou – Director

“At Cleantech for Europe, our mission is to help the EU lead the race to net zero, by scaling up our clean technologies. #SustainablePublicAffairs is not a consultancy, they are part of our team.

They are helping us build relationships with top decision-makers in Brussels and advocate for ambitious climate innovation policy. Besides being very good at what they do, our mission alignment on decarbonisation means they’re thinking the same way we are.”

First Ammonia

First Ammonia

Joel H. Moser – CEO

“Establishing a new market for green ammonia is no easy feat. #SustainablePublicAffairs has been integral to our efforts by outlining policies with the EU Commission and various renewable organizations which will help support and build clean energy facilities like ours. Their knowledge, expertise and involvement with driving policies that support the energy transition have been essential, as we position ourselves as a global leader in the green hydrogen to ammonia industry. We are pleased to consider #SustainablePublicAffairs an extension of our European team.”

Federico Magalini – Managing Director

“We decided to cooperate with #SustainblePublicAffairs because we needed not only a reliable partner supplying us with updated intelligence and information, but someone that shares our values and vision. We do not only need to understand main policy trends, but want to rely on a partner that can anticipate our needs and request. This is only possible when we both know where the sustainability journey will and should bring us!”

DSM

André van Wageningen – Director Public Affairs EU/NL

“The time to have an impact as public affairs community is now – with the European Green Deal at full speed. In all honesty, for us this also meant we needed support to drive change. While looking for an agency that shares our vision, ambition as well as commitment to sustainability we decided to partner with #SustainablePublicAffairs. It turns out that was the right choice! We can bounce of ideas like we have been working together for years, build on each other’s competences and expertise and create the intimacy needed to make it all work, and propel the transition to a more sustainable future together.”

ProVeg International

Lucia Hortelano – EU Policy Manager

“At ProVeg International we work to transform the global food system by promoting more plant-based diets. For that reason, it was very important for us to find a consultancy that prioritizes sustainability as its core business. Their consultants are highly skilled professionals who have a wealth of experience in their respective fields. They were able to provide us with valuable strategic insights and advice, helping to elevate our profile whilst making informed decisions. The whole AGRI/FOOD team has demonstrated a remarkable level of knowledge and adaptability in meeting our NGO needs, would absolutely recommend cooperation and work with #SustainablePublicAffairs.”

Issol

Issol

Olivier Demeijer – Managing Director

“From the very beginning, #SustainablePublicAffairs came up with numerous imaginative ideas and approaches, and we quickly got to a very clear strategy for photovoltaics, that makes business sense. I particularly admire their approach to accepting new clients, refusing any company, however large or well known, that is not entirely focused on a more sustainable future. They are the first to do PA this way and they are leading the sustainability revolution in their own sector: public affairs. Hopefully very soon #SustainablePublicAffairs will simply become the norm for all lobbying!”

Closing the loop

Eurelectric

Eurelectric

Kristian Ruby – Secretary General

“We are very happy that #SustainablePublicAffairs has helped us to coordinate positions on climate policy among our membership. Eurelectric strives to achieve a carbon-neutral electricity mix in Europe well before mid-century and it was a logical choice to be working with #SustainablePublicAffairs on this.

Apart from strong expertise on the content of the relevant policies, their team had proven track record in association affairs, which for us was a critical requirement. Based on our cooperation, I would not hesitate to recommend #SustainablePublicAffairs to other association leaders.”

I had a lot of expectations and they have delivered above and beyond since day 1. With them by our side, I am confident that we can make a difference in the EU policies for the green and digital transition of the Built Environment.”
