What LQG does

LQG is a Peruvian consulting firm headquartered in Miraflores, Lima, founded in 2007, that positions itself as the only comprehensive ("integral") consulting platform specialized in the energy and mining sectors in the country. The firm delivers multidisciplinary advisory services to large enterprise clients in electricity generation, transmission, and distribution; mining exploration and operations; hydrocarbons (refining, storage, distribution); and adjacent infrastructure such as transportation, water/sanitation, and telecommunications. Notable clients include Petroperú, Nexa Resources, Minera Peñoles, Kallpa Generación, Hydro Global Perú, Red Eléctrica Andina, Luz del Sur, Ferrovial, Aeropuertos del Perú, Monte Azul Logística, Azteca Comunicaciones, and CODESUR-Grupo Cobra.

LQG's core offering is organized as a "Platform 360°" (Consultoría Integral) that bundles six interconnected service modules: Estrategia Financiera (strategic financial consulting), Desarrollo de Proyectos (project development from strategy design through commercial operation), Asesoría Legal, Regulatoria y Comercial (legal, regulatory, and commercial advisory), Consultoría Técnica (technical consulting), Gestión Predial y Social (land and social management, including possessor and community negotiation), and Gestión Ambiental (environmental management instruments and advisory). The firm is officially registered to file environmental management instruments with seven Peruvian government bodies (MINEM, SENACE, MTC, MVCS, MINAGRI, PRODUCE, MINCETUR) and holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and ISO 45001:2018 certifications. A separate sub-brand, LQG Intelligence, provides sector analysis and executive education.

The business model is professional services revenue: project-based and retainer engagements sold directly to enterprise clients, delivered by 70+ in-house multidisciplinary professionals including lawyers, engineers across multiple disciplines, economists, biologists, geographers, and sociologists. Distribution is single-country, direct client engagement, supplemented by an annual "Día de la Energía" industry forum and the LQG Intelligence content platform for top-of-funnel positioning. The firm is privately held, with no disclosed external funding rounds, and is led by partners Anthony Laub, Carlos Gomero, Gabriel Doig, Gonzalo Blanco, and Ricardo Labó.
