Customer Reviews
See why business leaders across the world love working with Belinda and Kate
I often refer to Kate as a rock star businesswoman
"I often refer to Kate as a rock star businesswoman. Her experience and knowledge on all things getting investment ready is second to none. Kate is also one of the most connected people I know in business. Every time you have a question, if she doesn't know the answer herself (which she often does), she'll know someone who has the answer.
I've not met many people with her drive, determination and tenacity. She is also super curious and is always up for learning. She is the embodiment of 'everyday is a school day'. But for me the skill that makes trumps all of this is Kate's human skills. Her ability to empathise and to always seek to understand, is what makes her such a powerful leader.
My business partner and Co-founder and I feel extremely fortunate to have Kate on our Advisory Board but even more so, to have Kate in our corner, this means we can push harder and faster to make a bigger, more positive impact in the world."
Daniel | Co-Founder and Director | United Kingdom
