SERGIO MÜLLER

Thomas is a professional with high technical knowledge and a business-oriented mindset. A dynamic and proactive person with a lot of willingness to solve problems regardless of complexity to meet the client needs.

John Price

I've had the pleasure of calling Thomas Rideg a colleague for more than 10 years. I watched him build a consulting practice in Brazil through some very tumultuous times. He did it by bringing integrity and great insight to our customers across South America. Now he heads GIA's operations in greater China and overseas what is one of the great economic links of our time China-Latin America. I strongly recommend Thomas Rideg as an advisor to any company trying to navigate emerging markets, be they in Latin America or Asia.
