Teneo Expands Energy and Infrastructure Practice to Europe and Middle East

Teneo's Global Expansion in Energy and Infrastructure

Teneo, a renowned global advisory firm catering to CEOs, has announced the significant expansion of its Energy & Infrastructure (E&I) practice into Europe and the Middle East. Building on the recent successful launch in North America earlier this year, this strategic move aims to harness the firm's expertise and services in rapidly evolving energy markets.

The expansion includes the onboarding of ten senior energy consultants from various regions, including Germany, Spain, the United Kingdom, and Dubai. Among these new additions is Florian Haacke, a Senior Managing Director based in Berlin, who will spearhead Teneo's E&I initiatives across Europe. Florian brings over 25 years of extensive industry experience, along with specialized knowledge in strategy development, investment advisory, and technology innovations.

Florian and his team are keen to leverage the collective expertise within Teneo's Financial Advisory and Strategy Communications arms. By fostering cooperative efforts across various practices and regions, they aim to deliver not just technical expertise, but integrated strategic solutions tailored to meet the specific needs of their clients.

This expansion comes as Europe and the Middle East increasingly become pivotal hubs for energy innovation. Teneo's enhanced presence in these regions positions the firm to offer vital guidance to its clients amidst a landscape marked by an influx of capital, technological advancements, and evolving policies that affect global energy transitions.

Dan Gabaldon, Vice Chairman of Teneo and Head of Energy Management Consulting, emphasized the unique challenges and unprecedented opportunities facing clients in the energy sector today. He asserts that increasing their footprint in Europe and the Middle East will allow Teneo to provide deeper local insights combined with global expertise to support essential strategic initiatives.

Florian Haacke expressed enthusiasm about expanding Teneo's Energy and Infrastructure footprint, underscoring the significance of direct, localized insights which could help clients navigate the complexities of the energy markets in these regions. His team aims to enhance Teneo's capabilities in critical energy technologies and supply chains, ensuring clients receive holistic and actionable strategies tailored to complex market conditions.

Adding to this, Felix Schönauer, CEO of Teneo in Germany, noted the growing advisory presence Teneo has established in continental Europe over recent years. This extensive base will now be supplemented with expertise in the energy sector, which is vital for shaping the future of global business and policy.

The restructured E&I team plans to deliver substantial insights into significant technologies essential for the energy transition, which includes renewable energy generation, energy storage solutions, as well as transport infrastructure advancements. This approach guarantees that the guidance offered is not only rooted in in-depth regional understanding but also encompasses a comprehensive perspective of market dynamics, policy frameworks, and competitive elements that shape the energy landscape.

Furthermore, Teneo is committed to a collaborative approach, working alongside its Financial Advisory, Strategy Communications, and People Advisory teams to ensure clients receive seamless, end-to-end advice and support. This integrated strategy is deemed crucial for assisting clients in maximizing their potential gains in this dynamic sector.

As Bob Zabors, Teneo's Vice Chairman of Management Consulting and Head of Infrastructure and Innovation stated, Teneo is well-positioned to propel discussions around the evolving energy and infrastructure landscapes globally. With its increased scope and integrated service offerings, Teneo is set to help clients capitalize on opportunities in one of the world's most vibrant economic sectors.
