Colleagues describe him as "I had the pleasure of working with Hiten at 'School for Startups' for a couple of years. Hiten has a first rate understanding of the challenges facing a startup and what it takes to succeed. He trained and mentored many businesses very successfully and became an integral part of their support team. He has a deep understanding of both the need to build communities and the various mechanisms for doing so. Hiten excels at communicating complex concepts and requirements in a simple fashion, and is very adept at changing his language and approach to build rapport with different characters and personalities. He has strong planning, organisational, and project management skills and was absolutely key to the success of the many events we ran. Hiten is very relaxed in front of an audience and in large meetings, he presents well and is confident and reassuring. He is very good at sales because people warm to him, his caring personality always shines through. His problem solving skills were proven on many occasions and he has a very creative approach to management and running teams. Overall he is very professional in his approach and manages to be assertive and remove obstacles in a very calm and controlled fashion, he is very measured in a crisis. I would welcome the opportunity to work with Hiten again, and recommend him without hesitation." and "I first met Hiten in the very early stages of the Interchange project. He was a key part of the launch team and throughout our first conversations I was struck by his passion for creating and nurturing teams & communities, remaining thoroughly undaunted by the huge project that lay ahead, and truly understanding the alchemy of what makes a co-work space… well, work. Since then, we've collaborated on a number of projects focused on education, collaboration and entrepreneurship. Hiten has always been flexible, focused, supportive, and full of creative ideas and solutions, working seamlessly and effectively alongside everyone from senior leaders to young emerging talent. I look forward to us doing something together again very soon!"
