Polint Ltd is a Brussels-based lobbying and public affairs firm specializing in European Union (EU) affairs and international relations. Founded by former Member of the European Parliament Glyn Ford, Polint combines deep expertise in EU politics, law, international relations, and government affairs to assist clients in navigating the complex EU legislative and policy environment. The firm positions itself not as a traditional lobbying or consulting company but as a partner capable of engaging with EU political and diplomatic institutions on equal footing. This approach reflects Polint’s commitment to supporting a stronger, more progressive, and internationally engaged EU.
Polint’s core activities revolve around two main streams: European Affairs and European International Relations. The firm has developed a strong reputation particularly in government-to-government relations with a focus on Asia, and it has successfully worked with a diverse clientele including governments, non-profit organizations, think tanks, and private companies. Its expertise covers a broad range of issues such as trade negotiations and disputes, animal welfare, consumer protection standards, and internal market principles.
Polint offers tailored government affairs services that can either supplement a client’s internal team or function as an outsourced government affairs department, optimizing resources and ensuring effective engagement with EU institutions. The firm emphasizes value for money, adapting its services to clients’ budget constraints and priorities.
Operating from its Brussels office, Polint maintains a network of contacts and affiliations that enable it to influence and anticipate the impact of EU legislation. The company is registered in England (No. 06963311) and maintains a UK office to support its operations.
