“We were absolutely floored by the quality and extent of the study. The final deliverable included 100 slides with hard packed insights and recommendations backed up with a huge amount of data spreadsheets with sources. Now we have a very solid and hard data backed base to decide on our strategy and next steps. On top of that we look extremely professional in-front of our stakeholders and potential VC investors. We simply could not be happier with the results.”
