Ianet As an American-based company brought over to develop a project with several government agencies and NGOs, we started at a disadvantage because we didn't know the key players or the cultural 'rules of engagement'. Noel was instrumental in opening the right doors, putting us in touch with the right people, and helping us understand how the game is played here in Northern Ireland. And even in a country where everyone seems to be acquainted, Noel stands out because he *really* knows everybody! Rey Muradaz, Ianet http://www.ianet.org
