Policy Design Meets Municipal Execution

We partner with city leaders to navigate public sector complexities and deliver tangible community outcomes.

Years of Public Sector Leadership

We want to make communities healthier, happier, and more productive. With thoughtful design and strategic thinking, economic development organizations around the US can, and have to, be foundational to this goal.

Lantern’s goal is to play an active role in helping to organize, strategically position, and measure economic programs and their impact. Given the current environment, Lantern strives to provide the business community with comprehensive and consistent support and vision in an effort to help businesses succeed and drive better paying jobs. Lantern does this through the use of data, technology, and organizing frameworks like Logic Models.
