We offer advice on all aspects of acquisitions from initial strategic planning, target identification and valuation, through to deal negotiations, completion and beyond.
Buying a business can be a very effective strategy to acquire specific capabilities (in people or technology) or to simply build scale – perhaps with an enhanced exit at a later date in mind. Our focus on the tech sector ensures that we thoroughly understand both the technology drivers and the market drivers.
