Our Story, from The Messina Group to Fortius Global
As campaign manager, Jim Messina helps President Barack Obama win reelection in 2012 in a landslide, in what has been called “the best-run campaign ever.”
In 2013, Messina, Tara Corrigan, and Ty Matsdorf start The Messina Group (TMG) in Washington, D.C.—just three people in a borrowed, windowless office. The vision? Apply data-driven, political campaign strategies to solve the toughest corporate problems and create better outcomes for clients around the world.
In 2014, Messina partners to create Signal Interactive Media, a prominent legal media firm that has revolutionized class action notice using analytics and digital strategy. Signal goes on to serve media for landmark cases involving Takata, Remington, and Equifax. Signal is now a wholly owned subsidiary of Fortius.
In late 2017, TMG acquires Greenbrier Partners, a leading Silicon Valley corporate communications firm.
In 2018, TMG joins forces with A|L Media to launch Amplify Media Strategy, a media buying firm that redefined how to target voters through traditional and digital media. Today, Amplify works alongside MCM², our political campaigning firm.
TMG rebrands itself as Fortius Global, redefining its offering as a global strategic advisory firm. The new name reflects what the firm has become: a global strategic advisory firm operating across strategy, policy, communications, campaigns, and transactions.
