Selected Success Stories
“Before we embarked on the accelerator program, we were busy running many projects but somehow, missed our long-term vision and strategy. The programme has allowed us to be more focused and achieved the clarity in our organisational growth, thereby making informed decisions in selecting the right projects.
Our team has specially benefited from the 5-year growth plan where we worked together with the consultants. We have been using the growth plan as the roadmap to guide our work.”
- Pedro Aguirre, MakeTheChange
