“ I am honored to recommend Dr. Jagat Shah, founder of the Global Network Institute, under his guidance I had established the institute in Tamilnadu. His commitment to empowering individuals and organizations through global connectivity is truly inspiring. The institute has become a hub for knowledge exchange and professional growth, attracting a vibrant community of thought leaders and changemakers. Dr. Shah’s ability to bridge cultures and connect people worldwide is a testament to his exceptional interpersonal skills and strategic thinking. I wholeheartedly endorse Dr. Jagat Shah for his remarkable contributions to global networking and his unwavering dedication to advancing knowledge and collaboration on an international scale. I am proud to be one of his student of GNI 141 batch, where it has given me to step into global markets and applying the same of what we learned and Dr. Shah gives all the students a life long hand holding to make sure we succeed. Wishing you all the best🎉🎉”
