Etalia LLC

Etalia LLC is a strategic communications firm purpose-built for leaders in health, life science, and technology. The company operates through a proprietary framework called Science Relations, which treats communication not as a support function but as a core leadership capability and mission-advancement tool.
Etalia was founded by Paul Martin Jensen and Carolyn Barnwell, who together bring nearly 40 years of combined experience working with leaders at the forefront of science, policy, and global health. Their client history includes organizations such as Novartis, WHO, National Geographic, McKinsey, Columbia University, Duke University, and the Stop TB Partnership. Their work has contributed to the mobilization of more than one billion dollars for research and global health programs.
The firm specializes in executive positioning, op-ed strategy, organizational narrative development, and embodied leadership communication. Etalia works exclusively with leadership teams that carry a deep sense of purpose and are striving to accomplish goals of significant scale. Their ideal clients are, as they put it, at least slightly intimidated by the size of their vision.
Etalia believes that science is isolated not by accident but by culture. The firm exists to help scientific organizations build the relationships, influence, and trust their mission requires and that science, as a force in the world, deserves.
