Euralia

What Euralia does

Euralia is an independent Franco-Belgian public affairs consultancy founded in 1993 by Bruno Dupont, currently owned by Didier Sallé (President of the Board) and led operationally by Managing Partner Mathilde Bonvillain-Serrault. The firm advises enterprises, professional associations, trade unions, and NGOs on monitoring political and regulatory developments, designing influence strategies, and implementing coordinated lobbying actions toward French national and European Union institutions. Named clients span defense (Thales), insurance (MAIF), retail (Les Mousquetaires), agriculture (Limagrain, AGEA), highways (APRR), sustainability (Rainforest Alliance), automotive testing (UTAC), healthcare professional bodies, energy (Futerro), fishing industry associations, transportation (HyperloopTT), tourism (ADN Tourisme), finance (Eurosmart), space (CNES), and mechanical industries (FIM).

The firm operates from two offices — Rue Montoyer 25 in Brussels (headquarters, near the EU institutions) and Rue de Châteaudun 40 in Paris — enabling a dual-jurisdiction service model that pairs French and European-level influence work. Euralia is registered with the EU Transparency Register, the French National Assembly, and the French Senate, and holds membership in EPACA and AFCL, the two principal European public affairs consultancy trade bodies. There is no proprietary technology platform; the underlying 'technology' is the team's expertise, with staff drawn from Sciences Po, the College of Europe Bruges, emlyon, and prior in-house or institutional roles at Michelin, AXA, Amundi, the French National Assembly, and EU Commission DGs.

Euralia generates revenue through professional services fees on a quote-based, project- and retainer-driven model. Go-to-market is direct sales-led via the Brussels and Paris offices, supported by top-of-funnel thought leadership including a blog, the Open Lobby podcast, breakfast-debate events (often co-hosted with Bloomberg or Goethe-Institut), webinars, and the 'Les Yeux dans l'UE' European elections video series. The firm has been recognized in the Best in Brussels rankings in 2020 and 2021, including a named individual award to Mathilde Bonvillain-Serrault as Best Public Affairs Consultant 2021.
