Pholus is a boutique advisory firm that works with organizations in fragile or informally governed markets. We support founders, institutions, and philanthropic initiatives when operations drift, partnerships fray, or risk surfaces unexpectedly. Our work often begins where others step back.
The nature of our work means most of what we do doesn’t and shouldn’t make headlines. We are brought in when trust has eroded, when operations go sideways, or when visibility itself can become a liability. That’s why many of our engagements remain confidential by default, and why we’ve intentionally maintained a low public profile.
That said, we’re available for background briefings, interviews, or commentary on the challenges that institutions, founders, and funders face when operating in fragile, politically sensitive, or informally governed environments.
We do not seek media exposure. We speak when it serves clarity—not ego.
