“I had the privilege of collaborating with Ileana Gutu during her tenure as an Associate Partner at Ernst & Young Romania. Our partnership focused on a critical study that researched the economic and social impact of African Swine Fever on the meat industry in Romania. Ileana's leadership throughout the project was truly excellent. Her extensive professional experience and expertise, as evident from her background, became readily apparent during our project. Ileana quickly grasped the particulars of the Romanian pig production sector, ensuring the delivery of a comprehensive report grounded in solid facts. In my capacity as the client contact, I observed how Ileana and her team maintained a professional and constructive relationship, even when we encountered some minor delays in the project timeline. She was consistently available for clarifications, exhibited flexibility in making necessary adjustments, and demonstrated a strong commitment to delivering accurate and relevant information. What impressed me further was her proactive approach in providing multiple options for updating the report's data to extend the usability, emphasizing her dedication to delivering a top-tier service. Ileana Gutu's expertise and her real-world contributions reflect her as an outstanding professional. Her client relationship skills and team management abilities were key factors in the success of our project. I wholeheartedly recommend Ileana for her great capabilities and client-centric approach. Working with her was both productive and enjoyable.”

Mrs. Gutu is a dedicated professional, very thorough in any preparation, has very vast and complex experience in several fields. She has a strong academic background but also proficiency gained by implementing high-level project in areas such as state-aid files commissioning and monitoring, valuation services or strategic financial management.

“Ms. Ileana Gutu successfully supported us as an external expert in analyzing eligibility and preparing applications for funding as part of setting up a new company in Romania. The collaboration with lleana was characterized by her professional approach, expertise, pragmatism and results orientation. A successful completion of the project with full approval of the requested funding is largely due to the support of lleana. We will definitely work with Ms. Gutu again on future government funding projects. We can also recommend leana without reservation at any time.”
“It has been a real pleasure to collaborate with Ms. Ileana Gutu on one of Modus’ key transformational projects in Romania. Thanks to her hard work and diligence, we successfully achieved the preliminary phase of our intended strategic reorganization in time despite a tight deadline, and while mitigating all potential incidental risks. Her expertise and in-depth knowledge of all the nuances of the valuation methodologies were truly an enabler for us. More than that, Ileana’s patience and counsels allowed us to fine-tune and readjust our strategy to maximize the outcome. I sincerely believe that among all, trust is the most valuable quality one can demonstrate in professional relationships, and Ileana rightly earned mine. I would strongly recommend her to anyone who asks and would be delighted to have the opportunity to work alongside her again in the future.”
