Our Story

Many of Stenström’s clients are regular and long-standing. Although we are a small consultancy, we count several multinational companies as our clients, and we often report to the highest level within those firms. Kajsa Stenström, who founded the firm has more than 20 years of experience providing strategic EU advice. Before launching her own firm, Kajsa created and managed the EU lobbying team of the international law firm DLA Piper and has also served as senior advisor to several international consultancies. Her experience means that Stenström is very close to the legal community in Brussels.

We are precise and conscientious in our work – but we can also see the bigger picture and understand the real impact of EU policy on our client's daily business. We are discreet yet efficient; we know that “Brussels is all about compromise” and that a pushy attitude does not necessarily take you far. We also know to stay in the background during the dialogue between the client and the decision-maker. Finally, we pride ourselves on being able to think laterally; we enjoy working across sectors and finding synergies and unexpected collaborations.

Stenström also has an international network of partners, notably in Stockholm with Paues Åberg, as well as partners in Tel Aviv, London and Berlin. This way, we can provide our clients with the best possible representation in other capitals besides Brussels.

The firm has been named in the “Best in Brussels” list of top consultancies every year since the inception of the ranking. Additionally, Kajsa has been listed as a top consultant in every edition. We are also featured in the MACE listing of Brussels consultancies.
