Biography

David Schatsky is the founder of Green Research, a research, advisory and consulting firm focusing on cleantech, alternative energy and sustainability. Before founding Green Research, he was president of JupiterResearch, a global Internet business research and advisory company. He oversaw its global research organization and operations from its recovery after the dot-com collapse through 5 years of double-digit revenue and EBIDTA growth to a successful sale of the company in 2008 for $23 million, 92 times the price paid for the business in 2002.

Prior to Jupiter, David had a successful career as a systems consultant on Wall Street, where he built trading, allocation, analysis and reporting systems for clients such as JP Morgan, Credit Suisse, UBS, WestLB and Merrill Lynch.

For a several years he worked in international business development for an Italian software company based in the seaside town of Viareggio. Before that he worked at artificial intelligence pioneer Symbolics, joining a year before its IPO and helping to expand its business internationally, serving as lead technical marketing engineer and traveling to dozens of countries to support our subsidiaries and distributors. Symbolics was the first company to register a .com domain name.
