Policy and strategy consulting firm expands influence across Indiana’s capital region

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. – RJL Solutions has been named the 11th fastest-growing privately held company in Indiana, according to the Indianapolis Business Journal’s annual Fast 25 list. As one of the few consulting firms on the list, RJL’s recognition underscores its growing impact in Indiana’s capital—where the intersection of public policy, economic development, and civic leadership continues to shape the state’s future.

With established offices in Indianapolis and Terre Haute, and a third opening in Evansville this summer, RJL Solutions is helping public and private organizations across Indiana turn vision into execution. The firm’s cross-sector team provides integrated services in government relations, marketing and communications, grant strategy, economic development, and association management.

“Recognition by the IBJ matters because it reflects what we’ve been building in Indianapolis—a trusted, strategic presence for clients who need influence, insight, and results,” said Rachel Leslie, CEO of RJL Solutions. “This city is where key decisions are made. Our role is to help clients be ready, relevant, and at the table.”

In Indianapolis, RJL Solutions is building meaningful relationships across sectors—from civic leadership to business and education—to ensure clients are positioned where decisions are made. As the firm continues to grow, its presence in the capital is focused on helping organizations navigate challenges, seize opportunities, and shape conversations that define Indiana’s future.

The Fast 25 ranking reflects year-over-year growth verified by independent accounting, but Leslie said the story is bigger than the numbers.

“We don’t chase growth for the sake of scale—we earn it through outcomes. Clients stay with us because we deliver, and they refer others because we lead with clarity and purpose,” said Leslie.

“We’re not observers in this space—we’re catalysts,” Leslie added. “Whether it’s legislative advocacy, are brand, or a regional strategy, we bring energy and expertise to help clients meet the moment.”
