Greentech Media and Prometheus Institute Form Strategic Partnership
Greentech Media, Inc., an online media company, and The Prometheus Institute for Sustainable Development, a non-profit devoted to furthering the advancement of alternative energy and sustainable development, have formed an exclusive partnership to deliver an unmatched array of market research, industry publications and events. The strategic partnership has already delivered its first successful market analysis report, The Future of Thin Film Solar. A second report, PV Technology, Performance, and Cost — 2007 Update, which is a detailed look at the current and future costs to manufacture the major photovoltaic (PV) technologies currently in production, is being released today.
Through the partnership Greentech Media is now the sole publisher of PV News, a leading newsletter in the solar industry with detailed market analysis each month. Both partners also will deliver an educational seminar on solar technologies to be held in the Boston area in November.
The partnership is announced in conjunction with the country’s largest solar conference, Solar Power 2007, occurring this week, Sept. 24 — 27, in Long Beach, Calif. Prometheus Institute’s President Travis Bradford is moderating a panel this afternoon at the solar expo titled “Financing Residential and Small Commercial Installations.” Greentech Media will also be on hand at the conference covering the latest solar industry developments, and Greentech Media’s Senior Analyst Eric Wesoff will host a panel on Thursday called “Raising Venture Capital: Tips for Solar Entrepreneurs.”
“We are excited to be collaborating with such a strong online media and research partner,” said Bradford of the Prometheus Institute. “This will help us achieve our mission to disseminate our information and analysis as broadly and effectively as possible. We can leverage Greentech Media’s strengths in both market research and online publishing, making this a perfect fit for our organization.”
Scott Clavenna, president of Greentech Media, agrees: “Travis Bradford brings an unrivaled knowledge base, loyal following, and deep analytical skills to this partnership. We forward to delivering a diverse array of valuable products to the greentech market via our collaboration with the Prometheus Institute.”
