“Great ideas come to life if they are grounded in solid purpose and partnership. NearU and I found such purpose-based partnership with the SkyKnight team. SkyKnight’s ability to work with entrepreneurs, to push them to realize their full potential – while being very respectful of a company’s culture, vision, and mission – is outstanding. NearU could not have achieved its 10x growth and become a proud, category leader without our excellent partnership with the SkyKnight team.”
