About us
We named our firm “270” for the number of electoral votes required to win the White House. Our team includes key leadership from the Obama campaigns, and we constantly hustle to achieve presidential-level work. Since the launch of 270 in 2013, we have partnered with more than 350 campaigns, companies, and causes to develop engagement strategies that meaningfully connect them to the people they care about. We’ve worked with established organizations to make them more efficient, and helped innovators build campaigns and companies from the ground up. We’re changing the way our clients put their ideas into action – and changing the world in the process.

At 270, we are committed to fostering a culture of community building, collaboration, and knowledge sharing. Seasonals receive regular coaching and training from their manager, and join weekly all-staff calls and client team check-ins. We use communications tools like Zoom and Slack to stay connected and intentionally create space to discuss everything from client case studies to Widow’s Bay.
