The Clearwater Group, led by partners Austin Barbour and Arnie Hederman, specializes in federal, state, and local government relations, fundraising, political consulting, business development and grassroots advocacy.

We’re excited about the opportunity to partner together to grow our collective footprint.”

We are enthusiastic about this new relationship, and the new opportunities that it brings to our firm.”

This partnership will allow IMG and Clearwater to collaborate on political and public affairs campaigns, provide new services for their clients with needs in other states, and create new market opportunities for existing and prospective political, public affairs, public opinion, and government relations clients.
