What our clients say
gemaker were generous in sharing their wealth of commercialisation knowledge in the context of the university environment as well as from the perspective of industry. Their depth of experience meant that they could provide flexible and practical solutions with real-world examples.
We have to be agile, so gemaker’s swift support as a one-stop-shop for strategic advice, business planning, graphic design, writing, etc, has been key to our success. They’ve saved us heartache by providing sound advice based on extensive experience. The responsive gemaker team speaks our language and their can-do culture is a great fit for InSpace.
KCA chose gemaker for their sector knowledge, competency and cost-effectiveness. gemaker delivered the inaugural SCOPR report in an excellent format to tight deadlines, demonstrating professionalism, clarity and sensibility in all interactions. The report was well-received by research organisations and government stakeholders.
I recommend gemaker as a cooperative, collaborative and enthusiastic team who are leaders in their space.
We wouldn’t hesitate in working with the gemaker team again, they have outstanding expertise, the turnaround time was quick and their service is great value for money.
The gemaker team has diverse skills and experience ranging from media and marketing to commercialisation and intellectual property strategy, fundraising and industry and government partnerships. They have helped on all these fronts to position our company as a national leader in sustainable urban mobility.
I highly recommend gemaker’s services to businesses at all stages of growth.
