Client Testimonials

“We hired Rob as we were coming out of stealth mode and preparing to launch the first AI-enabled ATS, IntelligentCross . His broad expertise in the financial markets, start-up experience, and go-to-market insight proved invaluable at that critical time for our company. Whether building and executing against the marketing outreach plan, developing thought leadership content, or identifying and introducing us to the right potential partners, Rob helped us get to market more quickly and with great success.” 

- Roman Ginis, Founder & CEO

 Imperative Execution  Inc.

“We hired Hegarty Group to develop our Data Commercialization and Distribution Strategy to determine what data and analytics we should commercialize and how best to distribute them, including through dozens of 3rd party channels. Under a tight deadline, Rob interviewed more than 2 dozen executives across all major business lines, assimilated their perspectives, developed a plan and presented the recommendations to the Steering Committee.  His highly collaborative approach combined with his broad and deep knowledge of the data industry – as well as the asset management/servicing industries – provided us with timely, actionable insights, a sound strategic direction, and a prioritized list of “quick wins”,  along with a longer term roadmap for success that served us well for many years.”
