I worked with Michael Pedersen during his leadership of the World Economic Forum Partnering Against Corruption Initiative. Mr Pedersen's professionalism, dedication and innovative ideas always stood out in his work to create partnerships between governments and the private sector to fight corruption. I am confident that the same will apply to his work in the context of M INC. Mr Pedersen's initiative is very timely. I am keen on seeing his new endeavour flourish and the good results it will bring to good governance in business and sport.

When it comes to integrity and sustainability, Michael Pedersen is the right guide through the disparate worlds of business, government and civil society. The fact of the matter is that we – business, government and civil society – speak different languages; but to make progress in integrity and sustainability, we need to communicate and cooperate. Mr Pedersen is a consummate interlocutor among our parallel worlds.

Michael Pedersen combines highest levels of professionalism with a unique sense of dedication and integrity. Having followed his career over a decade, I have no doubt that M INC. will deliver on both counts – creating value with values.

Executive Director, United Nations Global Compact
I worked with Michael Pedersen for several years, as he led the World Economic Forum’s Partnering Against Corruption Initiative. He is a serious, hard-working and committed professional. His idea to found M INC. is spot on at a time when sport governing bodies are finally waking up to realize their responsibility in governance. Sport is crucial in providing role models, especially in developing nations, and sport governing bodies are fundamental to the support of development. I wish Michael Pedersen the best of luck in the launch of his new initiative.
