The Kidney Research Institute of Texas was established in memory of family members who have died from kidney disease, including Bill Gottfried's Father, Henry William Gottfried, Jr., CDR, U.S. Navy.
  • Our energy experience began when Bill Gottfried served a U.S. Naval Officer in the Middle East managing petroleum shipments in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Iran, and Yemen. During the collapse of the Soviet Union, Bill joined the first U.S. Department of Energy Trade Missions sent to Russia and Central Asia where he raised capital and recruited management teams for several of the first joint ventures in Russia, Kazakhstan, and Azerbaijan. He established the Energy Committee of the U.S.-Russia Business Council in Washington, D.C.
