Acquisition Opportunity Elevate Public Affairs recently changed ownership with Actum acquiring the firm in August 2025, indicating a potential shift in strategic priorities, client onboarding approaches, and service expansion. This presents a chance to approach the new ownership with tailored offerings that align with Actum’s broader portfolio and growth goals.

Scale Readiness With a revenue range of 10M-25M and a lean team of 2-10 employees, Elevate Public Affairs may seek scalable, high-impact PR and digital communications solutions, outsourcing or partner services to augment capacity for larger campaigns or rapid expansions.

California Focus Operating from Santa Monica and Sacramento as a women-owned firm with deep knowledge of California markets, Elevate is well-positioned to pursue state-level policy, regulatory, and public affairs campaigns across diverse industries within the state.

Tech Stack Leverage The use of WordPress, Google Cloud, Shopify, and other SaaS tools suggests openness to digital enablement, content marketing, and e-commerce integrations. This could translate into opportunities for enhanced digital PR, influencer campaigns, and client-side marketing tech optimization.

Strategic Fit Recent news indicates interest from Clare Advisors in Elevate’s sale to Actum, signaling a potential alignment with larger corporate or financial services clients. This creates upsell and cross-sell chances to present integrated communications, crisis management, and strategic advisory services.
