Andy Kaplan’s Summary

Following 15 years as a business development professional in the electronics, optics and semiconductor industries, I have decided to pursue a new challenge that combines my passions: Building "win-win" business relationships, solving critical technical issues and the desire to make the world a better place.

Over the past year, new Greenhouse Gas and E-waste legislation has increased the momentum for a new environmental age. Federal and state regulations are demanding more control over pollution and waste. While “Sustainable” and “Green” are becoming ubiquitous terms in the corporate world – how are companies to find their way towards a greater good while managing their bottom line?

ReuseRecycleReclaim’s collaborative relationships bring experienced professionals to reduce waste, increase efficiency, create new revenue streams and prepare companies to take the next step in becoming greener in a more “eco-centric” business environment. Some have termed our business model as a new breed of “envirocapitalist” companies.

We provide carbon management, industrial recycling and sustainability consulting services. These services help businesses increase their recycling revenues, reduce their carbon footprint and provide a blueprint towards a more sustainable business structure.

Contact me to discuss how we can build a plan that will drive both sustainability efforts and revenue.

Andy Kaplan’s Specialties:

Building new businesses in esoteric markets, creating value from waste, building cohesive sales and marketing programs, materials brokerage, carbon management and offsetting mechanisms and procedures, team management, product development, marketing in electronic media (web, social and email), lead generation, technical sales, building alliances and maintaining long-term business relationships.
