DMI Associates
Public policy and economic development consultancy services.
DMI Associates is an independent French consultancy firm founded in 1997 and based in Lyon. It specializes in providing expertise on public policies, economic development, judicial institution reform, and the strengthening of institutional capacities to improve governance. Since its inception, the firm has undertaken 180 missions across more than 50 countries, establishing a reputation for designing and implementing projects in developing and transition economies.
The company's approach centers on delivering customized services and fostering a participative method to address development challenges, ensuring that solutions align with the needs of institutional beneficiaries, the private sector, and civil society. Rather than imposing pre-packaged solutions, DMI focuses on offering advice and transferring know-how that respects local practices and contexts. It serves institutional stakeholders in Europe and globally by mobilizing a network of local and international experts.
To engage with emerging markets, DMI has expanded its presence by opening offices in China, Kazakhstan, Côte d'Ivoire, and Tunisia. This expansion aims to support the development of international trade and facilitate foreign direct investments in these regions.
