Who we are

We integrate expertise and business culture to combine the various aspects of infrastructure projects under one flow, one value proposition, one system dynamic. We bring together an interdisciplinary team of practitioners in engineering, planning, finance risk, design, and operations to advise technical consultants, financiers, insurers, developers, investors, operators of infrastructure, on how to improve climate and disaster resilience of infrastructure and maximize the benefits of investing in sustainability.

Our Story

What started as an exploratory discussion between two seemingly controversial teams about a project challenge that was neither purely financial nor entirely technical, was meant to be the beginning of our journey to build Grid Advisors. It soon became evident that our teams’ shared vision for the sustainable infrastructure of the future would only be served if we could understand each other and work together without diluting each other’s identity.

Today, Grid Advisors is blending  Grid Capital – a team with vast experience in international project procurement and execution-  and Grid Engineers -a group with global credentials in infrastructure design, risk modelling and resilience optimization. Although the two groups operate under the same roof, they continue to offer expert consulting services in their fields, while joining forces whenever a common offering serves the clients’ needs best.

Being small we can go into details

Our vision

From preparation and strategy development to integration, implementation and training, we help our Clients bounce forward by responding to the challenges of a rapidly changing world.

Our Approach

At Grid, we know that every case is different; that is why our solutions are tailored to meet the needs of every specific project.
