Bio
Gergely Ivancsics
Gabor is an exceptional business developer and innovative changemaker in the social impact field. His extensive experience in supporting and developing NGOs and social enterprises is an invaluable asset in our partnership between PBG FMC and Impact Accelerator. Working together this past year on an investment readiness project, I got to know Gabor as a humble, proactive, multi-talented professional, truly committed to purpose and societal impact. I had the chance to learn from his entrepreneurial approach and holistic view. I’m looking forward to continue our work together!

I had the chance to cooperate with Gábor while I was working as Ashoka Country Coordinator in Hungary. Gábor and his Team provided the Hungarian Ashoka Fellows with pro-bono support in strategy building, SRS reporting and impact measuring. Not only me, but also the Fellows were highly satisfied with his professionalism, empathy and continuous availability. What I have always admired and found professionally attractive in Gábor, is his openness and holistic mind-set even when it came to business and financial targets. He knew how to keep the perfect balance between staying empathetic and generate professional results. I remember, him as someone who knew how to listen to people while keeping in mind the common objectives. I would be happy to work again with Gábor in the future be it in the world of social entrepreneurship or elsewhere knowing that he is always ready to become deeply skilled in new areas.

Nincs szükség hosszú megbeszélésekre és túlzó paraméterezésre. Értjük egymást. Gábor a Társadalmi Hasznosságú Ökoszisztéma hiteles tagja és építője.
