Focus

JWI is a premier Washington, D.C.-based political and business consulting firm with an exclusively international practice. The firm serves political entities including sovereign governments, political movements and non-governmental organizations, and international corporations pursuing market development, project participation or project funding.

JWI services are provided by its leadership, a hands-on corps of experts drawn from the highest ranks of U.S. intelligence, diplomacy, security, finance and industry. Each of these individuals functions as the hub of extended circles of contacts in government, non-governmental organizations, think tanks, the media, funding institutions and industry.

Featured Achievement

JWI received a call from a Minister of a national government that is a client of JWI. The government was confused about requirements in its agreement with a major international funding institution. Knowing that JWI has excellent connections with senior-level personnel at the organization, the Minister asked JWI to obtain authoritative clarification. Within hours of the call, JWI was able to utilize its strong, established contacts and resolve the confusion, enabling the Minister and his nation to adjust policies accordingly so the agreement could proceed.
