Commitment
At the core of our business is a commitment to accelerating the adoption of innovations in cleantech, renewable energy, and sustainable business. This requires proficiency beyond "cleantech" or "greentech" innovations like solar energy, wind power, or alternative fuels, but the technological tools and infrastructure needed to support them. Advanced software, wireless, internet, and gps technologies among others, provide the foundation that will determine the rate of adoption, reliability, and cost benefits of new energy sources and the benefits that sustainable practices bring to bottom line results. Clearly the opportunity is profound for the leaders of this next revolutionary wave, and GAIA Search is here to provide the human energy needed to develop and maintain this leadership.

Focus
In 2008, venture capital in cleantech surpassed any prior year by over 40% while overall VC investment was down in the US. This trend continues, with cleantech poised to become the #1 VC investment sector in 2009. While this is extremely encouraging, the increased demand for key talent across all disciplines will likely become a challenge, particularly for the smaller or earlier stage start-up companies that lack the resources of their large multinational firms vying for the same market. If these shortages aren't properly addressed, they could ultimately result in failure, regardless of how promising the market opportunity or technology a company has. GAIA Search is designed to fill this need with an efficient, methodical approach to understanding our clients and the industry in general. Focus is our commitment, giving us the ability to separate real potential from opportunistic marketing, and bring you the knowledge workers and business leaders that will create ongoing success for your business.

Flexibility
Our services are available on either a retained basis, or for a contingency fee, depending on the type of hires and circumstances of the client. Regardless of the assignment we maintain 100% confidentiality and provide ongoing communication and feedback.
