Dan Burt, P.Eng. (he/him/his)

Iftikhar is a dedicated professional and brilliant researcher. Some of the most enlightening conversations I have ever had have been with him. He is an incredibly valuable asset to any organization and I can recommend him without hesitation.

Claire Kadeethum

I had the privilege of having Iftikhar as my first leader and mentor of 4 years. Iftikhar is incredibly knowledgeable, and is able to apply systems thinking to solve complex problems. As a leader, Iftikhar inspires change and innovation. He builds multidisciplinary teams on integrity and transparency. As a mentor, he is relentlessly supportive, and gifted me the courage to learn by doing, to take risks and to raise the bar. I strongly recommend Iftikhar to any team or organization, and look forward to working with him again.

Gavin Parmar

I’ve worked with Iftikhar for 7 years on numerous technology and energy transition projects. Iftikhar has a very strong technical background and is effectively able to translate his deep knowledge into simple terms to develop a business case. A few project highlights include developing and commercializing a novel partial upgrading technology, evaluating a number of acquisition and divestiture opportunities, and evaluating path to deployment of various GHG reduction technologies.
