Adds Policy, Gulf State Expertise
January 2, 2008 – Washington, D.C. –The
Harbour Group expands its growing public diplomacy practice with the
addition of Byron Fogan to the team. Mr. Fogan, a recent graduate of
Albany Law School, is a student of international law who has traveled
in the Gulf States and brings fresh perspective to The Harbour Group’s
work with the Government of the United Arab Emirates, in particular.
He will share his knowledge of U.S. national security, international
human rights law, and Pan-African and Middle East policy to help clients
manage their public policy issues and outreach to key stakeholders.
“This is a critical time for diplomatic efforts in so many regions
of the world and communications is an essential component to these activities,” said
Richard Marcus, Managing Director of The Harbour Group. “We find
that our public diplomacy work has taken off, and the addition of Byron
Fogan will add both depth and perspective to our work representing international
clients.”
Prior to studying law, Mr. Fogan managed client interactions and communications
for a number of industries — including telecommunications/high-speed
data, cable and media research — while working for Verizon, NYNEX and
Bell Atlantic. More recently, Mr. Fogan served as a fellow of the Government
Law Center at Albany Law School where he developed and delivered legal
training materials. He has been successful in enhancing good corporate
governance of not-for-profit organizations.
Mr. Fogan is a graduate of the Georgetown University College of Arts
and Sciences, where he earned a degree in international relations. He
