Ianusgroup

What Ianusgroup does

ianusGroup is a Brussels-headquartered strategic management consulting firm founded in 2013 by Luca Selva, focused on EU affairs, policy, and association management. The firm serves four customer segments: multinational companies, industry associations, non-profits, and start-ups, with named engagements spanning Nokia, UniCredit, Deloitte, and EU-level bodies such as EUTC, E.DSO, EE-ISAC, PRIME Alliance, ThinkYoung, and Regione Liguria. Service delivery is organized across eight core lines: People Management, Communications, Association Management, Compliance, Events, Resources, Policy, and Projects.

The firm's delivery model is human-consulting-led, with no proprietary technology platform referenced. A team of 14-17 professionals across nationalities and disciplines (EU affairs, legal, communications, events) operates from Brussels and Madrid, supported by an advisory board that includes senior figures from ENEL and ICAI. Differentiation rests on location in the Brussels EU regulatory ecosystem, Belgium-registered lobbying credentials, and accumulated trust capital in association and compliance work.

Revenue mechanics follow a professional services model with custom pricing per engagement. The firm supplements advisory work with Training & Coaching (launched 2018) and ecosystem convening activity (ES4S, founded 2019). No financial disclosures — revenue, headcount trend, or funding events — are available in source data, limiting visibility into scale and growth pace.
