Underwriting

I’m seeking underwriting of the various internet-based efforts of Asian Energy Advisors. Although connected with my consulting practice and with the intent of being funded by it, I’d like to ensure that the efforts here can continue independently of the success of that practice.

Underwriting is not sponsorship or advertising - though I’m sure funds will come out of your media budgets. The aim of underwriting external sites, in the words of Christopher Locke, should be to establish strong personal relationships between a company and emerging web micro-markets in which the company has a perceived future stake and in whose subject matter company employees have a preexisting personal interest.

I haven’t yet been able to distill the purpose of my web activities down to a single phrase, but the following is certainly a facet of it:

Philippine utilities are tired of playing the clueless bad guy. And people are tired of working for and paying for electricity from clueless bad-guy businesses. Commerce and culture don’t need to be at war, as Locke says. They need to be re-integrated.

Asian Energy Advisors strives to be a way that companies and government and internet communities can work together in a genuine partnership.

If that strikes a chord with you, contact me. Any level of underwriting is of interest.
