Bio
Tomás F. Costa, CAPM, ECBA
Patrick and I worked together in a group on a project in his EMBA program where we jointly researched and wrote a paper analyzing the market opportunities in Tel-Aviv and Seoul. The group was later able to use this paper to base their in-class presentation and provide a recommendation as to which market a Canadian company would be best fit to enter into. Patrick researched and wrote amazing pieces for our report on-time and with perfection and was an active contributor in our group meetings! Thank you very much Patrick!
