Tiffanny Gates most recently helped lead the integration of Novetta into Accenture's federal arm, where she also oversaw its national security business.
Capitol Meridian Partners, a private investment firm focused on the government and adjacent commercial markets, has hired former Novetta CEO and Accenture executive Tiffanny Gates as an operating partner.
Gates joins CMP after helping lead the integration of Novetta into Accenture's federal subsidiary, which acquired the former in 2021.
Gates became CEO of Novetta in 2017 and subsequently was senior managing director of Accenture Federal Services' national security business until her retirement from AFS in the spring, after which she joined the board of managers.
“Strategic deployment of technology into the government market is critical to enabling agencies to meet their specific mission objectives," Gates said in a release Thursday. "This is a unique opportunity to help emerging companies bring their technology to the defense and national security sectors.”
CMP is one of three members of the investment consortium that acquired LMI, the six-decade old government consulting firm that became a for-profit company through that transaction.
CMP was founded in 2021 by a pair of Carlyle Group veterans in Adam Palmer and Brooke Coburn.
