What Our Clients Say
I'd recommend Pragmatic Policy Group to any company that wants to innovate fast while shaping a new regulatory landscape. Oliver helped Lyft develop smart regulation on everything from the Future of Work to Electric Vehicles. He helped us engage with policymakers and community groups to develop and pass new laws which protected the $61 billion rideshare industry and were strongly supported by 76% of rideshare and delivery drivers.


Oliver's contributions to the national economy and community were nothing short of remarkable during his time advising the Australian Government. He delivered critical reforms to the $3.8 trillion banking system following the 2008 financial crisis. Oliver's work has left a lasting legacy, securing a stronger and more prosperous future for the nation and its communities. Pragmatic Policy Group is a valuable thought partner for governments as they think through how to regulate the most innovative and disruptive industries in their economies
