Alpine Group Opens Dallas-Fort Worth Office, Expanding PPHC’s Presence in the U.S. Heartland

We’re excited to share that The Alpine Group, one of PPHC’s three core federal lobbying firms, has expanded into Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW)—becoming the first top Washington, D.C.–based government relations firm to establish a presence in the region.

This move reflects Alpine’s long-standing commitment to Texas and fits right into PPHC’s broader goal of growing in high-impact markets. With over 20 Fortune 500 companies and a thriving mix of industries like energy, healthcare, tech, and advanced manufacturing, DFW is one of the most important business and policy centers in the country.

As Alpine deepens its presence in the Dallas-Fort Worth region, Senior Vice President Barry Brown will play a key role in supporting the firm’s Texas-based clients. With decades of experience in government, politics, and advocacy, Barry offers strategic counsel rooted in a deep understanding of both federal policy and Texas priorities. A native of Greenville, Texas, he previously served as Chief of Staff to Representatives Kay Granger and Michael Burgess. He is President of the Texas Breakfast Club and President-elect of the Texas Tech College of Arts and Sciences Dean’s Advisory Board. A proud Texas Tech graduate and former President of its National Alumni Board, Barry brings a client-first approach, leveraging his statewide network and policy expertise to help businesses navigate today’s evolving policy landscape.

Alpine already works with several leading companies across the state, and this expansion allows them to deepen those relationships while building new ones on the ground in Texas. The addition of Alpine’s new DFW presence marks PPHC’s second office in the region, joining TrailRunner International, the most recent company to join the Group. TrailRunner and Alpine have already begun collaborating on client development efforts, demonstrating the value of our integrated platform in delivering results across policy, reputation, and communications.

As Alpine CEO Keenan Austin Reed said:

“Dallas-Fort Worth is a powerhouse for business and policy, and a natural next step for us. Alpine is excited to grow roots here and deliver for our clients in a way that reflects the energy and innovation of the region.”
