Windward Catalyst

Windward Catalyst is a management consultancy that provides business development, strategic communications, and go-to-market research and planning services for entrepreneurs, investors, and small to medium-sized businesses. We are generalists, and extend a value proposition to clients that prioritizes solutions that are simpler (and simply more effective) over single-sector or specialized-service expertise. As a result, we spend a lot of time working with companies and entrepreneurs that are encountering certain needs for the first time - entry-level polling, press releases with advanced distribution, third- or fourth-generation websites and digital strategies, or perhaps their first foray into stakeholder (e.g. community, industry) relations - but aren't necessarily looking to begin open-ended engagements with multiple, large scale consulting and digital firms-> Our signature strategic planning services are designed to afford individuals and growing enterprises access to the same caliber of research, planning, and operational support resources that their larger competitors leverage every day, and at every stage of organizational development (from startup and market entry to subsequent exit strategy and M&A activity)-> Our complimentary work in the strategic communications arena extends to community and stakeholder engagement, corporate communications, governmental relations, and public affairs. From Boston and New York, Windward Catalyst currently serves clients throughout the northeast corridor and Washington, D.C. region on a daily basis. In a more limited advisory capacity, we routinely work with entrepreneurs and organizations throughout the United States and abroad. Primary industries served include: Alternative Energy & Tech; Communications/IT; Financial Services (including private and institutional investors); Hospitality; Industrial/Manufacturing; Nonprofit; Professional Services; Real Estate; Transportation.
