Daniel is without a doubt one of the most intelligent, most impressive and most enjoyable people I have ever worked with. He excels at everything he pursues and works with an energy that encourages success for his team. I recommend him wholeheartedly for any position.

Daniel led the team of 6 MBA students from TCD assigned to research and define the optimum corporate structure for the Fledglings Early Years social franchise at An Cosan in Tallaght West, Dublin 24. The quality of the work and the team's results were absolutely first class. Under Daniel's leadership the team worked effectively to comprehensively address and respond to their brief and I can strongly recommend him and his team for their results at Fledglings Early Years.

I was Chairman of the Enterpreneurship Forum, and I recommended Daniel to join the 7-member Forum, which prepared the first Entrepreneurship Policy/Strategy for the Irish Government, given to Minister Bruton, and released in January 2014. Daniel's advice and recommendations were incorporated into the report and are in the midst of being implemented by the Irish Government as part of the 2014 Action Plan for Jobs. Daniel's special areas of interest and participation/contributions were in the areas related to co-working spaces, immigration policy, and education. Daniel is a very positive and outgoing person, easy to work with and very connected to the startup community in Ireland. It was great to work with Daniel over the 5 months the panel worked toge

Daniel is a visionary with the added bonus of being able to deliver. He has shown time and time again that he can devise, design and then execute complex plans for the most challenging of issues. His boundless energy and infectious good humour make him a joy to partner on any project.

Daniel and I worked together on the Entrepreneurship Forum created by Minister Richard Bruton. It was quickly obvious that he has a great passion for entrepreneurship and that he has substantial knowledge and expertise of the area. His contributions on co-working spaces were particularly insightful and led to some clear recommendations.

Daniel as a mentor on the Bank of Ireland Accelerator Programme brought a real sense of high energy, focused commitment and great advice to our teams. The message delivered and taken by our teams from Daniel is that Start-Ups every day need to Get Up - DressUp - Show Up and never ever Give Up. Daniel is a true catalyst for positive change and start-ups need to be around that kind of energy. His session had high impact and was hugely positive for our teams and delivered with incredible passion and a real understanding of the life of a start-up. Great to have him in board as one of our mentors.

Co-working spaces are becoming popular for good reasons. Not all work, but the ingredients of the successful ones seem to include - plenty open space, for up to 150 seats - regular open events - combination of residents, startups and 'day trippers' - on site accelerator program. I know Daniel & Treehouse aim for a high standard across all these aspects ! No lack of energy and commitment here !

As a mentor with Carma Axlr8r, Daniel generously gave of his time and deep understanding of the Irish startup ecosystem. Working with our teams at the individual and group levels, he challenged our young entrepreneurs to follow through on their ideas and passions. By backing up that challenge with stories, ideas, tips, and strategies for executing on these ideas, Daniel deftly helped our teams craft a vision of success. The energy in the room was palpable!
