  • Your professionalism, dedication and drive both before, during and after the event helped to make it an overwhelming success

    Omar Siddiqui, United Nations Development Programme

  • Nisha receives our very highest recommendation to serve as a moderator or Master of Ceremonies.

    Michael Maltese, Legatum Centre for Development & Entrepreneurship, MIT.

  • You were largely responsible for the successful tempo and tone of our annual conference and I wish to thank you warmly for your work. When the meeting flagged, you brought it to life with humor, wit or a pointed remark. When the meeting threatened to get out of hand, you calmed things down and pushed the discussion along in the right direction.

    Kofi Annan, former UN secretary general, and head of The Global Humanitarian Forum.
