SEATTLE — After 12 years working with a range of businesses, The Bulleit Group will be focusing on serving clients in industrial sectors following the recent departure of co-founder Alex Hunter.

“The largest opportunity is within industrial sectors, including aerospace, climate technology, energy, fintech, transportation, and the investors who fund these initiatives,” said CEO and co-founder Kyle Arteaga, who bought Hunter’s shares of the firm. “These companies are heavily engineering and regulatory driven, which means their stories are heavily nuanced. This plays to Bulleit’s strengths.”

“Our renewed focus on industrials is not just a strategic shift but a commitment to bringing the future to life,” Arteaga said. That focus, he said, shows in recent wins new business wins including Impulse Space, AirSpace Intelligence, Nominal, Span and Founders Fund.

Hunter, who had been Bulleit’s president, announced his departure last week.

It’s impossible to properly reference the employees, partners, and clients who have had such a profound effect on not only my career but also my life, so I won’t try here. But you know who you are,” he wrote on LinkedIn.

“While this decision was not easy, I am thrilled about the new challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. I look forward to sharing more details about this next chapter soon,” he wrote.

Hunter told PRovoke Media he will be assume his new position in July.
