Our previous experience was that business development consultants did not understand our sector (humanitarian, development cooperation, and peacebuilding) very well and therefore the advice was not very useful. Our experience with Konsultori was very different: Petra Wolkenstein gave us a lot of food for thought and very useful recommendations tailored to our needs.

Above all, the collaboration is reliable. That’s exactly what you need at the beginning: reliable partners who are there for you regularly and provide constant support. It also feels trusting and not like “off-the-peg counselling”.

Petra used her wealth of B2B negotiating experience to help our lab companies find ways to grow and share the pie with Arsenal.

That speaks volumes for Petra’s value.
