Industry Focus
Stern Stewart & Co has implemented its Economic value added methodology in over 860 companies globally in all industries; ranging from banking to resource companies and industrial concerns to services businesses in all geographies. The firm believes the technology is applicable to all businesses and the secret lies in customising the metric to suit the particular organisation's culture and strategic drivers. The firm has published numerous books on the subject.
Stern Stewart Capital Partners, however, focuses on five key industries namely (i) energy - specifically alternative, cleaner energy sources (ii) resource technologies - rather than investing in the mineral resources itself it prefers new methods of mining and upgrading those resources (iii) financial services - including insurance and banking for the developing markets (iv) logistics and warehousing - areas that promote free trade in underserviced areas and (v) consumer products such as non-alcoholic beverages.

Famous quotes containing the words industry and/or focus:
“The development of civilization and industry in general has always shown itself so active in the destruction of forests that everything that has been done for their conservation and production is completely insignificant in comparison.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
“If we focus exclusively on teaching our children to read, write, spell, and count in their first years of life, we turn our homes into extensions of school and turn bringing up a child into an exercise in curriculum development. We should be parents first and teachers of academic skills second.”
—Neil Kurshan (20th century)
