Firehouse Strategies Secures Major Investment

Firehouse Strategies announced a major investment from Semper Fi Partners LLC, Aldine Capital Partners, and Wintrust Bank, N.A., to support the public affairs firm’s growth and acquisition strategy.

Founded in 2016, Firehouse Strategies quickly established itself as one of the nation’s premier public affairs firms, managing public affairs campaigns for dozens of Fortune 100 companies and national trade associations.  In 2020, Firehouse was named the best small PR Agency of the Year by PR News, one of the best public affairs firms in North America by PRovoke, and one of the 10 fastest growing PR firms in the world.

Based in Washington, DC, the firm opened offices in New York City and Orlando, Florida, earlier this year.  The new financial partners will accelerate the firm’s growth into new states and services through a combination of strategic investments and acquisitions.

“The most exciting part of this new venture is that it will serve as an accelerant to our current growth, assisting us in growing from one of the best public relations firms in DC to the best in the nation,” said Terry Sullivan, co-founding partner of Firehouse Strategies.

“In addition to being a major validation of our team’s culture and the quality of our work, this partnership will help us expand into more markets, offer more services, and deliver more wins for clients,” said Alex Conant, co-founding partner of Firehouse Strategies.

“In just a short time, the team at Firehouse has developed an impressive roster of clients, an exceptional and effective delivery model, and a proud and dynamic culture,” said Jeff Piper, Managing Partner of Semper Fi Partners. “Firehouse’s focus on authentic communication strategies to execute targeted campaigns across federal, state and local audiences is a key differentiator in today’s active stakeholder environment.  We are excited to partner with Firehouse to support their various growth initiatives.”
