Darshan Naduvattira is a hardworking and passionate individual. Having done his masters in sports management from UK, he brings with him a wide rage of knowledge and is well adept to work in the sporting industry. During my tenure at work with Darshan he has been immaculate in his working ethics, pooling in his experience in all the projects undertaken with him. Darshan delivers quality work and has a good acumen to identify possible business opportunities. My experience working with him has been fantastic and he will always top the list of people I would like to work with. His ability to think practically and remain calm in most adverse situation makes it a breeze working with him. I am sure Darshan would be a great asset to any organization that he works in.
