MISSION

We support these firms across all aspects of their commercial journey. That includes the analytical phases of building strategy and honing marketing message. It also comprises the operational aspects of staff development and direct engagement with potential customers, partners, regulators, relevant media and the financial community. Our firm aligns with each client’s values in seeking to generate commercial success while having a measurable impact on the effort to make the global economy less fossil- and water-intensive.

LEADERSHIP
Rob Glen

Acanthus Climate Ventures’ founder, Rob Glen, brings to client engagements an exceptional combination of experience in strategy, finance, policy, communications and business development earned over a career spanning the media, Wall Street and industry analysis and advisory. Rob is credited with playing a leading role in growing BloombergNEF from a small, London-based start-up to its current status as one of the world's preeminent providers of data, models and analyst insight to companies, investors and other institutional participants in the low-carbon transition. Prior to BNEF, he helped to make 451 Research, now a part of S&P Global, BNEF's equivalent in the enterprise technology sector. These successful experiences drew heavily from prior careers in finance - notably his more than 15 years as an investment banker, strategist and lobbyist with the Prudential Insurance Company of America – and media, as both a policy journalist and nationally syndicated newspaper columnist based in Washington, DC. His work has appeared in more than 100 newspapers in the U.S. and Canada as well as the Economist and National Journal.
