A política nem sempre funciona como deveria; e parte da classe política se tornou distante e desvinculada das necessidades das pessoas que deveriam servir. Nestas circunstâncias, não é surpreendente que o interesse corporativo prevaleça sobre o interesse social no processo de formulação de políticas e a polarização entre interesses públicos e privados cresce. A Atena surge para acabar com essa lacuna. Nós atuamos na área de Relações Governamentais, provendo informação qualificada, mapeando temas e atores, identificando riscos e oportunidades, criando planos de ação, dando suporte operacional e treinando negócios de impacto social para que possam defender suas agendas perante os agentes públicos de forma legítima e eficaz. A Atena acredita que a política não é o problema, e sim a solução. E que um aumento da participação social nos Poderes Executivo e Legislativo, fortalece os laços empresariais e amplia ainda mais o impacto que seu negócio pode causar!
