We work with companies that are helping build a sustainable future. Specifically, we support your company with commercialization, international expansion of your technology or service and site identification, investment readiness for clean energy projects (i.e: sustainable/clean fuels).

I volunteer as an advisor/mentor for accelerators; Breakthrough Energy (Fellows Program), Foresight, Lab2Market, Holland College (cleantech academy).
