Our Story

Beacon is a strategy consulting firm with a focus on providing our clients with actionable growth strategies and tactics. With a commitment to achieving top-line growth for our clients, our deliverables are designed to have a direct impact on their profitability.  For over twenty years Beacon has carved a niche as a premier advisor on issues of innovation, disruption, and international, adjacent, and emerging market growth for the Fortune 500. 

​

Founded in 2001, immediately after the tragedy of September 11th, our goal was to help our clients, our country and, by extension, our world, to recover, regroup and heal through business and economic growth. We were able to successfully establish and grow the firm, working with our clients as they have emerged, recovered and thrived. As both students and counselors of growth, we have responded to market trends by growing our capability to assess international market opportunities (both established and emerging), by developing proprietary frameworks for a globally constricting economy and by attracting senior thinkers in our target industries and geographies to our firm.

​

Beacon is located in Portland, Maine, on the coast of northern New England, and supports clients near and far.
