The Washington-based firm helps frontier-technology companies build the policy support, institutional partnerships, and social license required for deployment.
WASHINGTON, D.C. September 10, 2026
Fusion Affairs is a public affairs advisory firm for deep technology. It was founded by Francisco Marquez, who has spent more than a decade in Washington D.C. advising governments, multilateral institutions, and U.S. companies. Fusion Affairs formalizes that work around the need to bring serious public affairs expertise to the frontier technologies now moving from the laboratory into industry. The firm advises companies, investors, and research institutions on the political and institutional conditions that shape a technology’s path to market. Anchored in Washington, D.C., and operating internationally, Fusion Affairs begins with a focus on fusion energy, alongside work in commercial space and other deep technologies.
The work at Fusion Affairs integrates:
- Political and regulatory strategy
- Government and institutional engagement
- Strategic communications and positioning
- Coalition and partnership development
- Political-risk analysis
The firm helps companies integrate public affairs into technology development and commercial strategy from the outset.
“The companies shaping the future are solving extraordinarily difficult technical problems,” said Marquez, founder and CEO of Fusion Affairs. “But technical progress does not produce regulatory clarity, political support, institutional alignment, or public trust on its own. Those conditions have to be designed with the same seriousness as the technology itself.”
Our mission is to make fusion energy and frontier technologies understandable without diminishing their complexity, communicating its strategic importance to the people whose trust, participation, and support will shape its future.
