DOVRE GROUP SIGNS COLLABORATION AGREEMENT WITH GAIA GROUP
Dovre Group has signed a collaboration agreement with Gaia Group Oy, a Finnish consultancy firm specializing on sustainability. The collaboration agreement is part of Dovre Group’s recent introduction of a new service offering for actors involved in renewable energy projects, with an initial focus on projects in bio-renewables.
“We are very pleased to be working with an experienced and respected partner such as Gaia”, says Petri Karlsson, Head of Dovre Group’s Consulting division. “Dovre Group’s service offering for the bio-renewables sector covers management consulting and project management consulting services and tools, including sustainability issues and covering the entire project life-cycle from planning to production. Gaia’s expertise in sustainability consulting complements our expertise in strategic management consulting and project management consulting.”
“Today, sustainability is an important part of successful business. In biofuel production, for example, to fulfill the requirements of legislation and to gain consumers’ confidence, it is necessary to verify the product’s sustainability through its entire life-cycle. Gaia’s experts have successfully helped clients to cope with just such issues”, says Juha Vanhanen, Managing Director of Gaia.
