Global Energy Markets (a U.S. corporation) was founded as Global Development Networks and Global Markettactics in late 1993 to serve as marketing consultants for Fortune 500 companies with offices in Chicago and New York.

As global needs have shifted more towards energy, the single entity now known as Global Energy Markets has turned its focus to this sector.

GEM's principals were among the principals and founders of ASHCO/Kern; they formed GEM in January 2007.

GEM's suppliers:

• Aramco
• Rosneft
