TESTIMONIALS

Andrés Felipe Mora

Amandine Bebi Groupe ISM// Conseiller exécutif auprès de la direction

J’ai le plaisir de collaborer avec Kevin dans le cadre du lancement d’un programme commun LaLiga Business School et Groupe ISM. Kevin est proactif, très efficace et toujours très positif. Il connait parfaitement le milieu du sport et sait transmettre sa passion. J’espère avoir l’occasion de travailler de nouveau avec toi Kevin, en Afrique ou ailleurs.

Andrés Felipe Mora

José Moya Gómez LaLiga // Director of LaLiga Business School

I have been working with Kevin at Laliga, he was in Senegal and I was in Madrid developing projects together. Something curious happened: when I worked with him from Madrid I felt in Senegal, and when I visited him in Senegal I felt like at home….and that happened because Kevin is an amazing professional and better person. You will be lucky if you trust him for a job.

Khadidia Djigo CanalOlympia & Vivendi Sports // Représentante de Vivendi Africa au Sénégal

It’s with pleasure that I write this recommendation for Kevin. It’s been 2 years since I am working with Kevin. He is a self mademan and very passionate on his work. Kevin shows us determination and values for his work.

Andrea Oriol Valls LaLiga // International Business Developer BENELUX

I have had the privilege to have Kevin as my colleague at LaLiga. Working with him is a real pleasure! He is very creative, enthusiastic, relentless and a great professional overall. Football is his passion but manages all the business aspects without any problems. He is always wanting to learn more, wanting to improve himself professionally and I admire this type of attitude. I certainly think he would be an asset for any organisation he wishes to add value to.

Diary Amadou Canal+ // Responsable Marketing Fidélisation et Partenariat

Kevin fait toujours preuve de dynamisme et de créativité dans chaque projet. C’est un plaisir de travailler avec un partenaire comme lui.

Andrés Felipe Mora World Football Summit ⚽ Football Industry and Sports Management // Executive Associate

The first thing that comes up to my mind when I think about Kevin is creativity. He comes up with different ideas and solutions to different types of problems. For example, crazy and creative ideas for a marketing strategy of a product or service, or different tools and proposals to improve the VIP experience at Real Madrid. He also has a friendly personality and he had the courage to accept this internship without dominating the language he was required to work in (spanish), demonstrating he challenges himself and continuously seeks new opportunities to learn.
