Frank McCarthy, Founder & Principal, McCarthy Advanced Solutions (Moderator)
After 20 years embedded in politics, media and policy, Frank opened the doors to McCarthy Advanced Consulting in 2017 to provide his clients with the most comprehensive and effective government affairs services in the industry. He assembled an experienced, aggressive and results-driven team who have helped his firm and their clients stay ahead of the curve regardless of which party controls the levers of power in Washington.
Frank maintains constant access to key decision-makers across federal agencies and both sides of the Capitol. That proximity, paired with expert strategic guidance on grassroots mobilization and digital amplification, has produced major policy victories in transportation energy, telecommunications, labor, and healthcare.
His track record has earned repeated recognition: named to The Hill's Top Lobbyists list every year since 2019, a Top Lobbyist by theNational Institute for Lobbying & Ethics (2022-2024), and Bloomberg Government's Top Lobbying Firm every year since 2021. Still, Frank is proudest of the tangible wins his clients achieve year after year.
Prior to MAC, Frank spent five years at the helm of a boutique lobbying firm where he often helped his transportation, energy and labor clients fight above their weight class.
