I have known Abe Jacob for many years. My company, Intaero, recently contracted Abe to support me in launching a new product for the management of natural disasters.

The contract involved Abe creating an effective strategy and demonstrating a sustainable business model based on the business, social and environmental benefits of our new product. He was able to review my notes and break them down into appropriate segments to generate a compelling, strategic approach to the new business.

He is a natural leader and is respected by both his employers and employees alike. His straightforward and open approach to managing high performing teams and bringing on new talent is always respected by those he leads and guides.

IThe first, direct result of our collaboration is a business plan which is already generating investment interest in my company.
