Case Study #1
Our client, a multi-national telecommunications and intelligence technology provider, had created numerous operating companies in Europe and the Middle East, but did not consider the regulatory requirements before doing so.
We helped our client regulatorise its affairs and bring clarity to its development of and licensing of intellectual property within the group.
Case Study #2
Our client, a high-technology product house, required investment to achieve their strategic goals.
We assisted with advice and negotiations with a pre-eminent South African venture capital investor that acquired a minority stake at the appropriate enterprise valuation.
