Testimonials
“His understanding has been critical in helping us to deliver”
We have worked closely with Daniel for a number of years now and during that time he has become a trusted adviser to Evermore. His understanding of the political and media landscape in Northern Ireland has been critical in helping us to deliver major projects; while his commercial focus means we benefit from his input and perspective across all Evermore Group activities and interests.
Ciaran and Stephen Devine
Co-founders & Directors, Evermore“Huge help in our entry into the Northern Ireland market.
Daniel advised us on all stakeholder engagement activity during our entry into the Northern Ireland market. Belfast was the first location in the UK and Ireland where we introduced our state-of-the-art Smart Hub network, so it was vital we got it right. We now have 18 live Hubs across the city – a level of success we couldn’t have achieved without Daniel’s expertise. I look forward to continuing to work with him and would have no hesitation in recommending Belmont Strategy to anyone.”
Patrick Fisher
CEO, Pulse Smart Hub“I would highly recommend Daniel to anyone”
During my time at EirGrid Group, Daniel worked closely with SONI’s external communications team in Northern Ireland, advising on project-specific engagement and broader corporate communications. He always provided strategic, level-headed advice on often complex and newsworthy issues and played an important role in the successful delivery of several major projects. I would highly recommend Daniel to anyone who needs public affairs, community consultation or stakeholder engagement support.
