We help companies navigate government funding, regulatory complexity, and strategic risk — with the precision of advisors who understand both the rules and the opportunities they create.
Explore Our PracticeWhere regulation meets opportunity
The modern regulatory landscape is not merely a compliance burden — it is a source of transformative capital. The CHIPS and Science Act, the Inflation Reduction Act, ARPA-H, state-level AI initiatives, and education technology appropriations represent an unprecedented allocation of public resources toward private-sector innovation.
Themis Advisory Group's flagship practice helps companies identify, pursue, and secure funding from these programs — while ensuring full regulatory compliance and positioning clients for sustained eligibility.

We identify and pursue federal and state funding opportunities, navigate licensing regimes, and build the compliance infrastructure that keeps clients eligible — turning regulatory complexity into competitive advantage.

With more than fifteen years at the intersection of law, finance, and regulatory strategy, Terence brings a rare combination of disciplinary depth and cross-sector vision. His background in international taxation and corporate law allows Themis to see opportunities where others see only compliance obligations — and to build structures that capture them.

A New York-based machine learning company developing enterprise automation tools needed to diversify its capital sources beyond venture funding. Themis identified three overlapping federal grant programs, structured the applications to emphasize workforce impact and national competitiveness criteria, and coordinated compliance architecture to maintain eligibility across all three simultaneously. The company secured $4.2M in non-dilutive funding within nine months.
An adaptive learning platform preparing for market expansion faced conflicting regulatory requirements across three target states, each with distinct data privacy, curriculum alignment, and vendor certification standards. Themis conducted a comprehensive feasibility assessment, identified a sequencing strategy that leveraged early approvals to accelerate later ones, and managed the licensing process across all three jurisdictions. Full operational licensure was achieved in fourteen months — six months ahead of the client's internal projection.
A mid-market manufacturer receiving CHIPS Act incentives was flagged for a compliance review related to workforce reporting discrepancies. Themis conducted an independent internal audit, identified the root cause — a systems integration gap between HR and compliance reporting — and prepared the remediation package and response to the reviewing agency. The company received full clearance with no penalties and implemented controls to prevent recurrence.
A private infrastructure fund evaluating a portfolio of clean energy investments across the Northeast needed an independent assessment of regulatory risk before committing capital. Themis's review uncovered a permitting timeline conflict that would have triggered penalty clauses in two of five target deals, representing $18M in potential exposure. The fund restructured its entry sequencing based on our assessment, avoided the exposure, and proceeded to close three of the five deals on revised terms.

Themis's commitment to building institutional capacity extends beyond commercial practice. Through the AfriGlobal Legacy Foundation, our founder works to advance educational access, economic development, and intergenerational prosperity across the African diaspora.
This dual focus — commercial rigor and social purpose — is not incidental to who we are. It is central to it.
