Testimonials

“GSC has been a tremendous help for many of our projects. In particular, their project management and logistical assistance was invaluable during the Moscow leg of the NBA Europe Live presented by EA Sports™. This project had very difficult aspects and critical deadlines. Working with GSC, we were able to put on an incredible event, despite the difficulties. For any Westerner involved in a project here, or for any Russian hosting an event that requires cooperation with foreigners, I can wholeheartedly recommend GSC. They bring two worlds together. You will not be disappointed.”

“Doing business in Russia is challenging, especially if you are not familiar with the market. My company has been doing business in Russia for the past several years and has worked closely with David Watts, who has an extensive legal, media, business and project management background, in addition to the highest level language skills. Most important, he knows how to get things done. Now that he's formed a new company, Global Sports Consulting, I would highly recommend GSC for any company looking to set up a venture in Russia.”

"The NBA was delighted to have GSC as an event consultant for the 2006 NBA Europe Live presented by EA Sports™ in Moscow. GSC was there to assist in the most important areas for our event, providing interpreters, helping with transportation logistics and making sure that our needs were understood and carried out. GSC not only assisted with effective Russian language skills, but provided advice and consultation to help fill the cultural gap. Their assistance in event management in Russia is invaluable."

Mark Aronson

“GSC created an easy-to-use website for ticket sales that greatly increased our sales to foreign fans during the IIHF World Hockey Championship. They combine a ‘can-do’ attitude with an understanding of how to operate in Russia.”

Alexei Studzinsky

General Director, ЗАО FTA

"Over the past few years I have worked very closely with the directors of GSC. In addition to other projects, they wrote and implemented a business plan that greatly exceeded my expectations. The quality of work is just fantastic, and their strategic recommendations are always practical. They work wonderfully in a country where other foreigners often aren't able to adapt."
