About
Lykke Advice Team
Founded in 2016, Lykke Advice is an independent Brussels-based lobbying agency. Our aim is to provide advice to companies and associations seeking a specific, hands-on and tailor-made service from an agency that values quality over quantity. We only take on clients we believe in, and then we help them to grow their influence in Brussels.
Working within public affairs to influence policymaking in Brussels requires a deep understanding of complex legislative structures and mechanisms and a strong network in the EU bubble. We offer both of these vital elements and can help to further strengthen these partnerships and alliances.
We’re a young and creative team, with proven experience, and we believe that representing a client in Brussels takes a strong commitment and high level of engagement to provide a unique service that is fit-for-purpose.
Our aim is to provide clients with valuable strategic advice and a high-quality execution of it. We involve clients from the early stages of strategy design and allow for flexibility along the creative journey – this is key to a successful outcome.
We offer our tailor-made services at prices that larger lobbying agencies can’t match. Contact us today to find out more.
