PERRY NAIK, Global Consumer Insights Invista

Geo Strategy Partners took the time to understand our business from a market perspective, as well as an operational perspective. They combined that understanding with their knowledge of market analysis and acquisitions and helped us identify and close on a strategic acquisition. Geo Strategy Partners identified risks that were mitigated, and helped identify synergies that strengthened our financial models. Geo Strategy Partners helped us close the deal quicker, with less risk, and higher returns than we could have done on our own. I will definitely use Geo Strategy Partners again
