Olive Gaea & Blue Gecko Partner to Accelerate Climate Action & Sustainability

Climate technology innovator Olive Gaea has joined forces with award-winning sustainability communications firm Blue Gecko Consulting in a new strategic partnership. Together, they aim to empower organizations throughout the GCC and beyond to reach their sustainability targets and share their climate journeys with clarity and purpose.

Merging Tech-Driven Climate Strategy with Expert Storytelling

This collaboration brings together Olive Gaea’s cutting-edge climate strategy tools with Blue Gecko’s deep-rooted expertise in sustainability communications. The joint offering provides a comprehensive solution for businesses to monitor and enhance their ESG performance, reduce carbon emissions, and deliver compelling sustainability narratives that engage stakeholders meaningfully.

‘Zero’: A Seamless Platform for ESG and Carbon Management

At the heart of the initiative is Olive Gaea’s flagship platform, Zero—an AI-enabled SaaS solution built to streamline ESG reporting and carbon accounting. Zero automates the collection of emissions data across all three scopes, generates AI-powered pathways to achieve Net Zero, and facilitates access to carbon offsetting tools and ESG disclosures aligned with global standards.

Transforming Data into Purpose-Driven Communications

With over a decade of experience, Blue Gecko brings a unique ability to turn technical ESG data into human-centred storytelling. Ranked among the top sustainability communications consultancies in the GCC, Blue Gecko specializes in illustrating the real-world impacts of climate efforts and embedding these narratives across all touchpoints—from annual reports to digital media—for consistent, credible messaging.

“Together, we offer a complete package – from strategy to storytelling,” said Vivek Tripathi, Co-Founder and CEO of Olive Gaea. “Zero by Olive Gaea is designed to make decarbonization and ESG leadership effortless and achievable. Businesses don’t just need to act on climate—they need to show how and why it matters. That’s where Blue Gecko’s storytelling expertise is invaluable.”

“Innovative companies like Olive Gaea are pivotal in helping companies define and refine their sustainability objectives and set clear roadmaps toward ambitious targets. But they need us to complete the circle. We work alongside them to understand a company’s sustainability goals and intended impact—allowing us to shape a meaningful narrative that extends from internal communications all the way through to stakeholder communications,” added Michelle Ponto, Founder and Managing Director, Blue Gecko Consulting.

Aligning with the UAE’s Evolving Climate Legislation

This partnership is launching at a critical moment. The UAE’s Federal Decree-Law No. 11/2024, effective from May 30, 2025, along with Cabinet Resolution 67/2024, set to come into force in January 2026, introduce new requirements for corporate climate accountability. These regulations aim to strengthen emissions management across sectors and support the UAE’s commitment to achieving Net Zero by 2050.

Equipping Businesses for Action and Advocacy

As policy shifts accelerate, Olive Gaea and Blue Gecko are ideally positioned to guide companies through this new landscape. Together, they offer both the digital infrastructure to track and reduce emissions and the communication expertise to articulate progress, helping businesses not only comply but lead in the global sustainability movement.
