Bio
Danny Peppou
It was a pleasure to work with Dominic as the Ceo of the startup Zelda. Dominic had great vision for the Zelda and showed great leadership amongst the team. Dominic was able to make challenging choices of prioritisation during our strategic planning process which was in the best interests of Zelda. As a relatively new CEO, Dominic definitley exhibited the characteristics of the next generation of entrepreneurs: he was willing, bold, but I also witnessed him build trust and rapport with both his immediate stakeholders/team and with his customers. I wish Dominic and the team at Zelda the best of luck in launching their app!
