Montreux Energy organizes senior-level strategy roundtables on the future of global energy investment. Since 1990, over 7000 leaders have participated in Montreux Energy roundtables.
The first Montreux Energy Roundtable was held in 1990 in Montreux, Switzerland as a dialogue between OPEC, the International Energy Agency, oil & gas majors, producing countries, energy service companies, and the international banking community. Montreux Energy continues to convene broad and comprehensive discussions of the landscape for energy supply, demand, and emissions over a practical, five- to ten-year investment horizon. We debate policy, technology, and investment trade-offs as we look to a future of lower-carbon energy. We endeavor to include all leading companies and thought leaders in energy, power, transportation, infrastructure, and services.
The objectives of Montreux Energy are to engage constructive, interactive, stakeholder dialogue. We host key regulators and policy officials, from local, state, federal, and international organizations, and we invite new, creative thinking on how to modify, guide, and incent consumer behavior, responsibility, and leadership.
In addition to the annual Montreux Energy Roundtable, held for twenty years in Montreux, Switzerland, Montreux Roundtables have been held in Beijing, San Francisco, San Diego, La Jolla, Aspen, Denver, Washington, Cambridge, and London.

Leadership
Andrew Bermingham, CEO
Andrew joined Montreux Energy at its outset in 1990. He started the Aspen Clean Energy Roundtable in 1994. From 1997 to 2001, Andrew opened and managed the London office for Montreux Energy, and began the Global New Energies Roundtable series at Cambridge University. Andrew also began California and Washington Clean Energy Roundtables in 2004 and 2005. Andrew is aware of society’s need to understand the many connections between energy and resource supply and the built environment. In 2008, Andrew organized Montreux Energy’s inaugural London CityDesign Roundtable, “Secure Energy for Megacities,” focusing on the urban demands for energy and services. Also that year he launched Montreux Energy’s Advanced Energy Storage Roundtable: AES08 in La Jolla: “Advanced Energy Storage: Enabling Distributed Generation, the Smart Grid, and Renewables.”
Andrew received a BA in Economics from Middlebury College, in Vermont, in 1985, and received a MS in Mineral Economics from the Colorado School of Mines in 1992. He gained his initial interest in energy working for a summer in college with Denver-based Hamilton Brothers Oil & Gas Company on an off-shore production platform in the North Sea. He followed his interest in architecture and the urban environment via the Career Discovery Program at Harvard University’s Graduate School of Design. Andrew began his career at Merrill Lynch in New York in sales and trading, from 1985-1988. He then worked for a year with the International Energy Agency / OECD in Paris, before joining Montreux Energy. He also studied at IMD, in Lausanne, Switzerland. Andrew recently served on the Board of Trustees of the Denver Botanic Gardens and the Alumni Board of Governors of the Hotchkiss School. Andrew and his wife Wendy live in Denver with their three sons; they enjoy hiking, skiing, hockey, and cycling.
