Vince Trovato is the CEO of Global Strategies and is an international business consultant with a focus on global geopolitical and energy issues, and has held a wide range of leadership positions in the public and private sectors alike.

Trovato’s accomplishments include serving as a Senior Advisor in International Affairs for the United States Department of Energy where he supervised energy innovation projects, assisted with obtaining investments for projects around the world, and focused on growing commercial prospects in crucial and emerging markets. During this time he also served on the boards for both Power Africa and Prosper Africa, entities dedicated to increasing energy on the continent and doubling two-way trade and investment between the United States and Africa.  Beyond that, his efforts aided the United States in becoming a net energy exporter for the first time in nearly 50 years and currently serves on the board for the Africa Energy Chamber of Commerce.

Before being selected to serve in the United States government, Trovato successfully sought political consultancy prospects both at home in the United States and overseas in Africa, the Caribbean and the Middle East. Domestically he has assisted Republican candidates to various elected offices and has worked on several Presidential campaigns, culminating in Wisconsin turning red for the first time since 1984 while serving as the State Director in 2016.

Meanwhile, Trovato has effectively guided and advised firms across various industries and of different sizes and structures, showcasing a thorough understanding and an active determination to further create relevant trade partnerships abroad. After the U.S. was successfully re-established as a global energy exporter, Trovato returned to the private sector and is now the CEO of Global Strategies – a consulting company specializing in energy projects in emerging markets – where he continues to find innovative ways to enable and build the private sector relationship between the U.S. and nations in critical emerging markets throughout the world.
