Our Story

Imperium Public Strategies is the creation of Clint Brewer and Josh Helton, two proven leaders with decades of executive experience in government, media, politics, business, and the law. Clint and Josh first worked together in the administration of Governor Bill Haslam. Reporting to Commissioner Bill Hagerty – now a U.S. Senator - they helped build one of the most successful economic development programs in the country.

Clint went on to help found the MLS2Nashville Committee which successfully helped recruit a Major League Soccer team to Tennessee. Clint was the public relations lead for the award-winning integrated campaign to secure the team from the league and a stadium deal from local government.

Josh became one of the foremost Republican campaign law experts in the U.S. with his expertise being sought nationally on ballot access and election day operations. He has served for three cycles as a senior advisor to the National Republican Senatorial Committee and worked for two presidential campaigns.

Josh and Clint combined forces in 2020, forging Imperium during the Covid-19 pandemic where they helped clients from the public and private sectors make sense of a challenging new normal and thrive. The company is now based on historic Music Row in downtown Nashville where they serve clients in healthcare, venture capital, commercial real estate, technology, financial services, education, the non-profit sector, and politics from across the country.
