Policy, Advocacy & Ecosystem Leadership
We clear the path.
THE PROBLEM
Hard Tech companies operate in heavily regulated, complex environments where government policy directly shapes what gets built, who can buy it, and how fast companies can scale. Most companies can’t afford to engage at the policy level on their own, and critical priorities go unrepresented as a result.
47G advocates on behalf of the hard tech industry at the state and federal level, working to shape the policies that govern procurement, innovation, and the industrial base.
What We Do
State and federal advocacy — direct engagement with Utah legislators and federal agencies on hard tech priorities
Defense procurement policy — shaping how government buys and adopts emerging technologies
Innovation pathway development — reducing friction for dual-use companies navigating regulatory and procurement complexity
Industrial base alignment — advocacy for policies that strengthen regional manufacturing and defense supply chains
Strategic partner network — coordinated work with specialized law firms, government relations consultancies, and policy advisory partners
WHO IS THIS FOR?
Companies operating in regulated sectors (defense, aerospace, and hard tech), where policy shapes market access, procurement, and competitive positioning.
