Global Change Associates Inc. (GCA) was founded in 1991 by Peter C. Fusaro [1] to focus on the convergence of energy and environmental financial markets. Peter is a recognized "thought leader" on energy and environmental markets, and he provides advisory to many companies on dealing with the impacts of climate change, clean technology and renewable energy for his clients. GCA's focus is on recognizing opportunities in both sustainable energy and environmental projects for financial services companies such as hedge funds and investment banks and for venture capital in cleantech and renewable energy. Peter published the first studies on green trading markets, energy hedge funds, Enron and energy e-commerce. His intellectual curiosity and market intelligence is second to none due to his extensive global network of energy and environmental industry experts. Peter believes in the concept of "high tech, high touch" which encompasses the capabilities of the Internet coupled with the importance of personal human contact. His live presentations are both insightful and passionate. Peter holds the highly successful Wall Street Green Trading Summit [2] IX on March 23 and 24, 2010 in New York.
