Founded by Jay Hicks- CEO of GADG was started as way to facilitate financial opportunities for growing businesses. As it developed partnerships for this business, GADG realized the lasting impact was not in delivering financial services, but that true profit could be found in working together for global benefit.
GADG has partnered with high quality companies, such as a 63-year-old concrete maker. GADG also joined a 27 year old technology consortium that produces state of the art solutions for the medical, mining and agricultural fields. GADG even added a sustainability subsidiary in Zero Waste, to re-imagine garbage and turn it into materials for building, parts for vehicles, energy, and clean water. As a result it has evolved into a global turnkey solution for countries, cities, and communities looking to sustainably and cost effectively modernize their infrastructure.
