“Mayvin Global were engaged by Bleach* to conduct a feasibility review of one of our Gold Coast based performing arts projects.
We found them to be strategic in their approach, providing key commercialisation advice and were respectful of key stakeholders. We had project delays unrelated to the work provided by Mayvin Global, however, they were flexible and provided suggestions to address the impacts as well as identifying the risks of go/no go actions.
The commercial expertise provided by Mayvin Global has given us important insights into our business.”
