“John (Read) played a leading role in the successful marketing campaign to launch Twenty20, which has now become a global sporting phenomenon.”
"Tim Hughes knows Africa inside and out."
"I've known John (Read) for many years, and have always really valued working with him. He has an instinctive understanding of the way the media works, allied to a first class appreciation of the wider communications environment. But above all, he's a good, trustworthy guy!"
"When working for me John always performed with great skill and dexterity. I have continued to watch his career with interest and have great admiration for his drive and enthusiasm."
"I was delighted to invite Leke to join the Committee for President Clinton's Millennium Network Event at the Dorchester Hotel in October 2009. That event raised over £100,000 for President Clinton's Foundation and, as one of the Event Chairs, Leke played a leading role in securing that final fundraising figure. Leke continues to be one of my first port of calls. He is an exceptional source of information, ideas and contacts. I would work with him again in a heartbeat!"
"Leke is multi-talented. He has a strong knowledge base, a pool of connections and a clear desire to enhance both. He strives to fully research issues and get behind the story rather than parroting the cliches of the day. Always alert, Leke will give you what you ask of him and probably surprise you with a little extra."
"Tim Hughes has an exceptional repertoire of research experience and achievement."
