One of the firm’s principal clients is the University of Maryland College Park Foundation, where Ken Ulman, President of Margrave Strategies, serves as Chief Strategy Officer for Economic Development. Ulman also serves as President of the Terrapin Development Company, LLC, an entity co-owned by the University of Maryland.
A prime example of our embedded work comes from Ken Ulman’s role as Chief Strategy Officer for Economic Development at the University of Maryland, College Park. Beyond serving as an advisor, Ken is a member of the Cabinet of President Dr. Wallace Loh, and is responsible for executing the Greater College Park initiative, a program that is focused on creating dynamic academic spaces, transforming the Baltimore Avenue corridor into a vibrant, downtown community, and creating a robust public-private research enterprise. Through this role, Margrave Strategies has unique insight into the University System of Maryland. In addition to our partnership with UMD, Margrave has also been retained for similar work on behalf of Towson University, Salisbury University Foundation, and Bowie State University.
Margrave Strategies leverage’s our deep relationships with stakeholders across the state to help our diverse portfolio of clients execute their strategic plans, enhance their profile, and drive opportunities to fulfill their core mission and objectives.
