ABOUT EMMA EKMAN
As a Legislative Assistant focused on Transportation within Holland & Knight\'s Public Policy and Regulation Group, I specialize in guiding innovative tech and transportation companies through the complex landscape of federal policy and regulation. I have focused my portfolio on matters related to the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, FAA reauthorization, Advanced Air Mobility, Passenger Rail, Autonomous Vehicles, Infrastructure Development, Local Transportation Projects, and DOT funding opportunities. In my role, I steer client team coordination, ensuring seamless stakeholder outreach, and materials for weekly calls across a diverse portfolio of 14 clients. I stay ahead of legislative and regulatory developments, monitoring federal funding announcements, congressional activities, regulations, and other policy shifts that impact the transportation sector. This allows our team to provide clients with the most current and relevant insights, helping them make informed decisions and stay competitive. My expertise extends to arranging and conducting high-level meetings between clients, legislators, and government officials. I organize impactful fly-in events, managing every detail from materials preparation to attendee coordination and logistics, ensuring a smooth and successful experience for all involved. Through clear and concise policy memos, hearing summaries, and legislative tracking documents, I keep clients informed on priority issues and firm successes on their behalf. I also provide our clients with updates on pertinent legislative and regulatory developments and updates on Capitol Hill engagement and advocacy strategies. Passionate about driving results and fostering strong client relationships, I am dedicated to helping my clients achieve their strategic objectives in the ever-evolving tech and transportation sectors.
