Association and Coalition Management

State governments are nimble and creative in their ability to regulate industry vis-a-vis the federal government, and as such, increasingly serve as the laboratories of democracy and the principal governmental entity licensing and regulating industries.

As a result, trade associations and coalitions are formed around or refocused on state legislative and regulatory issues at a continuous clip. These associations and coalitions find establishing their headquarters under the management of the nation's leading comprehensive state and local government relations firm of MultiState Associates to be an efficient, effective means of maintaining the headquarters staff and facilities they need while maximizing the resources they can devote to their highest priority - their state government affairs agenda.

MultiState Associates offers national trade associations and coalitions, who are primarily state-focused, the services necessary to manage their day-to-day operations, including:

• 11,000 square feet of fully furnished and equipped headquarters facilities inside the Washington beltway in Alexandria, Virginia, just minutes from Reagan National Airport;
• over 75 years of executive level association management experience on staff among MultiState's partners and association management staff, including two Certified Association Executives;
