Meet Convergence Strategy Group
Founded in 2018 and headquartered in New Orleans, the firm represents the combined expertise of Scott Fisher, Ph.D. and Suzanne Perilloux Leckert, AICP.
Formed through the convergence of two highly respected advisory practices, the firm provides specialized analytical and strategic consulting services to casino gaming operators, hospitality developers, investors, tribal entities, and public-sector clients worldwide. Our work supports complex, high-value projects that demand reliable forecasting, thoughtful strategy, and deep industry knowledge.
With more than five decades of combined experience and over 500 casino and resort-related analyses completed across the globe, our principals remain personally involved in every engagement. This hands-on approach ensures that each client benefits directly from senior-level expertise, rigorous analysis, and practical, actionable guidance.
We advise clients across the full project lifecycle — from initial market assessment and feasibility analysis through strategic planning, financial forecasting, and operational positioning. Our experience spans casino feasibility studies, hotel and resort assessments, racetrack and racing analyses, integrated resort development, and comprehensive financial modeling for major gaming and hospitality projects.
Our work has supported developments throughout the United States, North and Central America, Asia, Europe, the Caribbean, Africa, and the Middle East. Landmark projects in markets such as Macau, Singapore, the Japan, Greece, Boston, the Mississippi Gulf Coast, New York, and emerging global jurisdictions have advanced with our analytical and strategic guidance.
Expert Analysis Rooted in Ethical, Data-driven Practice
Convergence Strategy Group combines global experience with a strong understanding of local market, regulatory, and political dynamics. We support clients navigating licensing processes, legislative environments, and evolving competitive landscapes, helping them position projects for long-term success while minimizing risk and uncertainty.
Our advisory services extend beyond gaming to include integrated and ancillary developments such as mixed-use residential, large-scale commercial projects, cultural and entertainment districts, convention centers, marinas, golf courses, and other leisure-oriented developments. We regularly assist public-sector and nonprofit organizations in evaluating projects designed to generate economic growth and community benefit.
Grounded in a commitment to professional integrity and the principles reflected in the AICP Code of Ethics and Professional Conduct, we approach each engagement with objectivity, discretion, and a focus on outcomes that serve both our clients and the broader communities in which they operate.
