Domain Expertise
For the past nine years Panel Intelligence has provided primary market research to top biotechnology, pharmaceutical, and medical device companies. Today, we're bringing the expertise we've developed and honed over the years in the Healthcare industry to our CleanTech practice. In addition to successful project design, management, and analysis, our research team has a tremendous amount of experience with emerging CleanTech markets and technologies. David H.

CleanTech Expert Network
Panel Intelligence's network of experts in the CleanTech industry includes academics, key opinion leaders, manufacturers, industry veterans, legislative and policy makers, and top managers of private and public CleanTech companies. Our network has broad representation across geographic and market specialty areas, access to centers of excellence, and deep executive, scientific and field experience in all major CleanTech sub-sectors.
Most importantly, our research staff understands the industry. We realize that a critical challenge for CleanTech companies today is gaining an understanding of the factors driving the demand for their products and technologies. Many of these markets are in the early stages of development, and many of these technologies are disruptive for existing consumers, corporate buyers, distributors, and channels. In addition, large corporations are now developing and implementing comprehensive environmental-sustainability strategies and policies—driven by their Chief Sustainability Officers—and purchasing managers are faced with new criteria and guidelines for making vendor selection and purchasing decisions.
To address the rapidly evolving dynamics of the CleanTech markets, our expert CleanTech network includes a large and growing number of corporate Chief Sustainability Officers (and those with similar roles) as well as corporate purchasing managers responsible for the actual buying decisions. Gaining access to these key policy makers and gatekeepers is critical for CleanTech companies to understand their markets and rapidly build revenues. Our knowledgeable research staff can help clients navigate the fragmented, heterogeneous group of markets and technologies that make up this industry to find exactly the right experts needed for any given project.
CleanTech Research Library
The Panel Intelligence research library contains published documents from our Leadership Summits, IPO Panels, and custom research projects, providing our subscribers immediate access to insightful, focused research. Custom research that we conduct for our healthcare clients is owned exclusively by the client and never published. Work that we do for our financial clients is available exclusively to those clients for a limited time, after which the information becomes available in our library. Clients have the option to subscribe to the library or purchase reports on an ad hoc basis.
