Our Story

 

Forbes Tate Partners grew out of the desire of two former White House colleagues – each with their own successful government relations firm – to get the band back together, so to speak.

That friendship and desire to work together to build a great client service business is at the core of FTP. Since joining forces, Jeff Forbes and Dan Tate, Jr. have built a highly skilled team of professionals whose collective expertise and strategic chops make FTP one of the top business advisory and advocacy consultancies in Washington, DC. While other firms may also have deep experience, what sets FTP apart is our culture.

Like Jeff and Dan, many members of the FTP team have a history of working together – whether on Capitol Hill, in the White House, on political campaigns, or in state and federal government. This familiarity and camaraderie make FTP feel like an extended family. Not only do we know how to work well together – we are intentional about collaboration. That cohesion built into our team mentality is what produces results for our clients.

We think our culture and personality as a firm is a rarity in Washington, DC and we invite you to learn more about FTP.
