Capital Partnerships was founded in 1997 by Christine Vineis on a simple equation: A lifetime of strategic relationships across the country, coupled with in depth, public policy knowledge, equals excellent government relations and grant writing services.
Time has proven this to be true for the vibrant boutique firm. With offices in Columbus, Ohio and Washington, D. C., the firm represents a multitude of public and private sector clients: states, municipalities, a leading healthcare provider, industry suppliers, port authorities and more.
The firm is affiliated with The Livingston Group, a leading Washington, DC lobbying and public affairs firm. Located on Capitol Hill, The Livingston Group is one of the most respected bi-partisan lobbying firms in Washington. Capital Partnerships is now backed by the talents and expertise of 7 former Members of Congress and an unmatched talent pool of former executive branch senior officials, military officers and congressional staff. Founded by former House Appropriations Chair Bob Livingston, the Livingston Group is known throughout Washington for its vast expertise and record of results. This affiliation expands Capital Partnerships' sphere of influence and provides clients even greater access to the Administration and the U.S. Congress through the most connected professionals in the city.
