Green Investing – Hot, Flat and Profitable

Hot, Flat and Crowded tells us what we already know and should be doing to save our planet, but some professionals in my network of professionals (I run a number of groups on LinkedIn, take a look at the Green Investors Group) have already started to take action before this book was written by Mr Friedman.

Take for instance this one:

We have a company that is producing community sized solar powered water treatment plants (Red Bird) and other sustainable waste water, and remediation technologies. Over 3 million in gross revenue, cash flow positive and profitable.

Or:

We have a zero-emission, closed loop generator that simultaneously creates electricity, water, and heat. There’s nothing like it on the market.

And:

And a Power Playground that uses children’s energy to create electricity and pump purified water.

If you’re an investor out there who’s interested to put your money to work whilst saving the planet (Thank you), these opportunities might be of interest to you. Feel free to drop me a line (felix@felixsim.com).

Testimonials

Jurry de Vries, Managing Partner, Total Solutions Middle East

“I have been working with Felix since the past year on some joint clients.

In addition he is very responsive to client needs and provides honest advice. Finally, in addition to his regular work, Felix is the President of the Singapore Business Council representing his proud country and its businesses in Dubai in a professional manner establishing high level business contacts.”

Haissam Arabi, CEO & Fund Manager, Gulfmena Ltd

"I have hired the company that Felix works for where he was the expert on the subject of hedge funds, structuring, legal, compliance and regulatory. Felix was directly responsible for our application and was later lodged with the regulators. Felix’s background in hedge funds and asset management companies was instrumental for guidance and even in structuring of the business model. His insight was important for completing the very lengthy application where he helped us answer all necessary questions and address all concerns that regulators like to get comfort on. In addition to his experience and background in the field of finance and investments, during the same time, Felix demonstrated other great attributes that any client would look for, including but not limited to, honesty, understanding, patience, placing client first, hard work, dedication and passion to a client’s cause, inspirational and above all he proved to be a true partner for me and Gulfmena during the most important stage of Gulfmena’s early stages. The result was great and we got our license as a regulated entity recently. I think Felix and his background would be an asset for any company in the field of finance and consultancy."
