Many distressed companies deployed significant capital in the 1990s and early 2000s, only to face bankruptcy and liquidation due to industry overcapacity. In many cases, assets are still deployed and hold value. In others, there is little value remaining despite the millions of dollars expended. Gemma Communications identifies whether these assets still hold value, and where the value may be hidden.

We combine academic discipline with real-world telecommunications experience.
