Testimonials

CONNEX experts really knew the details of the projects, the demographic situation, the land and the country as a whole, which really helped in the negotiation. It was different having someone who really knew the country, as opposed to an expert from a far-off country who knew very little about Colombia.
Santiago Perez Ospina
Director of Mining, Antioquia Regional Government, Colombia
Managing a project of this complexity demanded a new level of strategic thinking and process rigor. With CONNEX’s support, we were able to build a transparent and adaptable tendering framework that met inter­national standards, while tailoring it to Montserrat’s unique context. One of the most impactful aspects was the inclusion of climate objectives in the financing strategy — it helped us see beyond the immediate infrastructure to the long-term transformation we’re aiming for.
Colin Fergus
Permanent Secretary, Ministry of Building, Utilities, Infrastructure, Labor, Transportation and Ecclesiastical Affairs (BUILT), Montserrat
Throughout this two-year journey, CONNEX has not only been a service provider, but a true partner invested in helping us to develop the green hydrogen projects in Mauritania. Their unwavering support through the experts they have provided has played a pivotal role in the milestones we’ve already achieved over this period.
Lehbib Khroumbaly
Advisor, Ministry of Oil, Energy and Mines, Mauritania
We were very pleased to work with CONNEX. Our portfolio includes numerous mining and real estate assets, and we are committed to maximizing their value. This project represents an initial step in what we anticipate will be a highly productive and profitable approach to the development and disposition of government-owned assets.
Cathy Fong
Undersecretary for Privatization and Corporate Affairs, Department of Finance (DOF), The Philippines
Client-focused, solution-oriented and forward-thinking.
Chongo Mulenga
Assistant Accountant, Government of Zambia
It reminded us of the purpose of international cooperation. With CONNEX, it was directly helping us. It was not a “soft” project, with hard to define results, it was what international cooperation should really be. This is the challenge, let’s tackle the challenge and solve it together.
Santiago Perez Ospina
Director of Mining, Antioquia Regional Government, Colombia
We are very pleased with the level of support which has been provided to our country so far. The kind of support which CONNEX provides brings confidence to the negotiation process. The support we have received has brought enlightenment to our negotiating team, but also there has been a lot of knowledge transfer.
Molewuleh B. Gray
Former Chairperson, National Investment Commission, Liberia
We were very pleased to have CONNEX’s support. We all have learned so much from them and have been very grateful for their assistance over the last couple of years.
