Adi Hristova

I can only highly recommend the work and dedication of Brett @ Geddes & Sutaris Pro-Bono Consulting. Brett and his partner designed a market entry analysis and provided an in-depth research in our industry for the US market. They supported our company with a thorough growth strategy whilst demonstrating remarkable skills such as teamwork, critical thinking and leadership. Their ideas and strategic insights are an asset to any startup looking to enter a new market and/or receive a competent and fresh perspective underpinned by their diverse experience and objectivity.

Brett was one of my best students at the Geneva Business School. I had him in classes around Organizational Behavior, Leadership, Strategy, Idea Validation, Scalability and Entrepreneurship for social impact. We also did a consultancy project for a digital entertainment startup in California. Brett was consistently top of class. Brett has superb analytical skills, he is able to find solutions for the most complex op problems in a methodological way. This combined with his creativity and drive will make him excel at a wide range of roles. In fact I offered him a job at my company, but he turned me down. Lucky is the company that can hire him.
