GSI Associates was established in 2013 by a group of like-minded professionals, each enjoying a successful track-record in their own right. We share a common belief that effective consulting hinges on forming the right strategic partnerships, each specific to the solution sought, and which are developed and sized to deliver joined-up, results-focused and sustainable outcomes.Between them, the founding members of GSI Associates are able to boast over 100 years of experience working on a broad portfolio of public and private sectors initiatives, both large and small on behalf of a wide range of clients, ranging from start-up businesses to major international corporations and donor organisations (EU, World Bank, UNDP, etc). The impetus behind the decision to establish the company was based on a shared belief in the importance of combining three essential components vital to delivering effective and sustainable results.
