Join Sean Tate from RAIN (Regional Accelerator & Innovation Network) and Tate Public Affairs for a presentation and discussion about Small Business Engagement in Public Policy.
Meet Sean Tate
I founded Tate Public Affairs in January 2020 after serving as a VP of Public Policy and Business Development since 2013. An (almost) lifelong Oregonian, I represent my clients’ business and policy interests wherever needed, building partnerships, and working towards positive outcomes.
I am active in healthcare, education, and business development policy circles, and enjoy good, no-nonsense relationships with legislators, legislative leadership, staff, and colleagues from all policy perspectives.
Prior to working in Public Affairs, I spent more than 20 years in business development, marketing, and sales management in the print media industry in Oregon and Montana. I am an experienced marketer and consensus-builder, and I like to take an inside-out approach to understanding client issues.
I serve on the board of the Lebanon Chamber of Commerce and the Albany-Millersburg Economic Development Corporation. As a registered lobbyist, my primary areas of policy focus are healthcare, business and workforce development, economic recovery, and higher education.
I live in Lebanon and engage in many of Oregon’s recreational opportunities including road and mountain biking, fly fishing, and camping.
