Crimson Enterprises was founded with a simple, but powerful conviction: communities and organizations deserve more than quick fixes; they deserve strategies that transform. After eight years as Assistant City Administrator in Lake Charles, where she helped attract more than $100 million in investment, and launched over 75 programs that strengthened the economy, small businesses, and youth outcomes, Kimberly Dellafosse recognized a greater calling. When she transitioned out of city government, she turned that moment into a launchpad. What could have been a setback became the seed for Crimson Enterprises.

Today, Crimson stands as a boutique consulting firm dedicated to helping businesses, educational institutions, and municipalities drive progress and achieve measurable outcomes.

We partner with businesses, educational institutions, cities, and organizations to:

• Build small business ecosystems that foster innovation and resilience
• Design youth and leadership programs that prepare the next generation
• Create strategies that attract investment, improve customer experience, and drive sustainable growth

Whether it is convening stakeholders, launching new initiatives, or building systems that last, we deliver results grounded in real-world experience.
