› Public Affairs

We explore and develop innovative approaches to the challenges that technology creates in digital regulation and in the specific ecosystems of each industry. We build medium and long-term strategic plans that generate real and sustainable impact.

We support organisations and coalitions in developing impact strategies and strategic institutional development.

› Our approach

Companies operate in environments where regulatory, legislative, and policy decisions have direct consequences on their business. Understanding these shifting contexts, anticipating changes, and developing strategic planning are management imperatives for modern organisations.

Crítica's Public Affairs practice advises organisations that need to understand and engage with that environment in an informed, timely, and coherent way. We work with mid-size companies, industry associations, and foreign firms seeking to operate in Chile with clarity about the technological, institutional, and regulatory landscape — identifying and planning opportunities for them to generate public influence.

› What we do

— Legislative tracking and monitoring

We identify, systematise, and translate the progress of legislative processes into actionable intelligence. This includes tracking bills with sector-level impact, early-warning alerts on regulatory changes, and periodic reports calibrated to each client's interests. The goal is to produce useful information that anticipates future scenarios that could affect a client's business activity in any way.

— Political-strategic support

We help organisations understand the political environment in which they operate: who the relevant actors are, how interests align, and what dynamics are at play in a given regulatory process. From that diagnosis, we assist in defining positions and designing institutional engagement strategies.

— Legal analysis with a regulatory dimension

We review regulations, bills, and regulatory instruments with a focus on their concrete impact on the client's operations. We do not replace corporate counsel — we complement them with a reading of the local and comparative political and legislative context that allows for anticipating scenarios, evaluating risks, and preparing well-grounded responses.
