Principal Consultant, Stephen Gale & Associates

Stephen Gale is the Principal Consultant for Stephen Gale & Associates, a business development partnership located in Northern California. Stephen works with socially responsible early stage companies, many of whom have already grown to the point that they are preparing for a funding event – including second or third round venture financing, mezzanine financing, attracting a strategic investor and traditional bank financing, including asset based lending.

For over 20 years, Stephen has incorporated sustainability principles in his work with businesses located in the United States, Europe, Australia and Canada.
