| | OCTOBER 20174Consultants ReviewEditor's NoteEnvironment Consultants are Creating a Competitive Landscape Nandini MukherjeeManaging Editor ConsultantsReviewWhile the recent growth in India's economy was spurred by the software sector, infrastructure and manufacturing seem to be the key growth areas now. India is also seeing massive amounts of foreign investment in the chemical, manufacturing and real estate sectors. Increased foreign investment has affected the environmental agenda in India. Many multinational companies that are setting up base in India are creating a sort of precedent by addressing environmental issues seriously with the help of expert advisory services.In fact, the growing discussion and action on environmental and social issues globally has further fuelled the need for businesses to understand the opportunities and risks related to climate change and to develop sustainable business models that embed environmental, social and economic principles at strategic, managerial and operational levels while meeting stakeholder's expectations. Environment consultants with their elevated levels of experience and thought leadership are leaving no stone unturned to provide businesses with progressive service offerings related to environment that are tailored to their requirements based on their demography, sector, and client-specific issues.The bottom line is as long as the world continues to pollute while simultaneously relying on the services the environment provides; environmental consultants are going to be necessary to a wide range of industries. In the year 2010, there were 89,000 environmental specialists hired in the consulting industry, and is expected to increase by 19 percent by 2020. The number is impressive indeed!Do let us know your thoughts.Vol 3 · Issue 7-1 · October 10 - 2017 Publisher & Editor Alok Chaturvedi Managing Editor Nandini MukherjeeEditorial Team Amit Raja Naik Akanksha Pooja Devi Vikesh Deepshikha Singh Prisila Tashi Sangmo Group Art Director Ashok Kumar Sr. Visualiser Maitreyee Visualiser Manjunath Vimal Raj GM - Sales & Marketing Rohit Kumar T: +91-80-46441103Sales & Marketing Ashu Sethi T: +91-11-204639306editor@consultantsreview.com marketing@consultantsreview.comNo. 124, 2nd Floor, Surya Chambers, Old Airport Road, Murugheshpalya, Bangalore-560017To subscribe: Circulation Manager Magendran Perumal T : +91-80-46441103subscription@consultantsreview.com Cover price Rs 150 per issue.Printed and Published By Alok Chaturvedi on Behalf of Bizprint Media Technologies Pvt Ltd and Printed at Precision Fototype Services at Sri Sabari Shopping Complex, 24 Residency Road Bangalore-560025 And Published At No. 124, 2nd Floor, Surya Chambers, Old Airport Road, Murugheshpalya, Bangalore-560017.
