Sunil Jhamb

CEO & Founder of Celeris

It is with sincere and heartfelt appreciation, I give Royal Park Partners my highest recommendation, who advised as a trusted partner on this deal. From start to finish, Aman and the RPP team stayed engaged and navigated the process to the finish line.

RPP never got frustrated or pressured us to accept the deal that didn’t feel right. Instead, RPP helped us stay focused on the long-term vision, reminding us that the right partner with the right terms is worth waiting for. RPP is not just an advisor, but also a strategic partner who would go above and beyond to make things happen.
