Creative thinking and cost-effective solutions to environmental challenges

"When future generations judge those who came before them on environmental issues, they may conclude “they didn’t know”: Let us not go down in history as the generations who knew, but didn’t care."

- Mikhail Gorbachev in 2002

From deeper understanding of environmental challenges to pragmatic consultancy services

Gaia helps its public and private sector clients to recognise the most important environmental challenges and find innovative solutions for them. We assist them in understanding the implications and relevance of the latest environmental research. Together, we identify their critical challenges, risks and opportunities both on the strategic and political level. We also advise our clients on future sustainability developments in the national and international political framework.
 
We design climate and environmental strategies for public and private sector organisations, and carry out studies on environmental business opportunities for the public sector, such as municipalities. We also do risk analyses of chemicals for various clients.
 
In addition, Gaia has profound competence to carry out strategic evaluations of environmental technologies, and analyse their market potential for instance from the point of view of competitor analysis, financing, investments and R&D. We carry out policy and policy instrument analyses for our clients, thus helping them to gain advantage of political initiatives and incentives.

Turning sustainability challenges into innovative solutions

Gaia combines extensive expertise on the whole environmental agenda into a strategic understanding of the client’s business, policies and agenda. Cooperation and partnership with Gaia helps our clients to integrate environmental challenges and solutions into the core strategy of the organisation, and understand how these challenges can be turned into win-win situations and a competitive edge.

Our pragmatic tools and methods such as workshops, group process facilitation, and simulation tools provide the client with a vast amount of information, and new insights and angles to complex problems. This information is used to create effective, cost-efficient and measurable solutions.
