Kamal Hassan Founder at Incmind, Director at Founder Institute

Thanks!

I invited Kamal to be a guest presenter and mentor at a 2-day startup bootcamp for promising entrepreneurs in the Caribbean. This event was facilitated by the infoDev Group at the World Bank. In addition to delivering great presentations on investment-readiness, and providing valuable feedback and insight to over 17 entrepreneurs, Kamal was a pleasure to work with! The participants truly enjoyed learning from him! I look forward to working with him again in the future to support entrepreneurs in emerging markets.

This guy senses what the future wants to see and sees how that might come to be. He's sensitive, articulate, patient, dedicated, honest and loyal, and bright. He is keen to succeed in anything he touches.

Kamal is a first-class CEO with a clear vision of where Skymeter Corporation is going and how to take it to the next level. He is honest and sacrificially hard-working and very calm in a crisis. His analytical skills are excellent and he is good at putting a diverse team together and working effectively with all its members. He takes a consultative approach to tough business challenges. A highly commendable CEO.

I have known Kamal Hassan for 5 years. Early in our relationship he was an advisor to a company that was a predecessor to Skymeter Corp, and he subsequently became the CEO of Skymeter. I have worked closely with Kamal throughout this time. Kamal is singularly optimistic and hardworking. He understands things quickly and executes an astonishing amount of work. Lots of people work 70 hour weeks, as Kamal does, but few, like him, never flag. Throughout the time I have know him he has shown a rare degree of tenacity and integrity. I have never seen him angry or discouraged. I don't recall him ever blaming another for a problem. He listens to his entire team then executes what he thinks best without apology. He undoes errors as quickly as he understands one was made and always speaks straight and respectfully to the issues.

Kamal's work was key to solving the complex math equations required for distortion free 3D image projections on a dome surface. His contribution allowed IMAX to premier their a highly successful advanced 3D system at the worlds fair in Osaka Japan.

Kamal was an excellent CEO for In Your Pocket. Not only did he secure $5million in financing for the company, he also presided over the expansion of the In Your Pocket brand across Europe. Under his stewardship the company opened several offices in Scandinavia and Western Europe.

Kamal helped pilot a new technology company at the start up phase for us, and did so very successfully. If you want 100% integrity, deep intellect, and unyielding determination, he is your man.

Kamal is a top-notch executive heading a 21st century technology company. He graduated at the top of his class at INSEAD.

Kamal and I went to b-school together. He invited me to work on the Board at IYP where he was CEO. I was very taken with his strong grasp of strategy, as well as his determination, hard work and openness to new ideas. Above all he was able to be thoughtful and measured even when the chips were down - a rare commodity.
