For over 30 years, Dakin Partners served as marketing consultants to money managers who became some of the world's most successful investment entities. In doing so, we helped them to identify the combination of strengths that made them unique and that provided a true competitive edge in a crowded marketplace. The principles we rallied around are directly transferable to the dynamic new industry of bottom-up philanthropy.

We contributed essays, books, speeches, industry ad campaigns, even a series on investment. We were passionate about the field and became thought leaders as the industry matured. A sampling is included under the writing tab at the top of this website.
