He took upon himself to educate his team on the commercial logic behind a potential BD relationship. A well rounded, personable professional with excellent knowledge of his industry. I found Salmaun to be a quick learner, able to grasp nuances of our products and then reconnect them back to his business to make it relevant. Absolutely, results oriented! Would love to find a way to work with him again. He is a great asset for any Company small or large.
