Supporting your business through every phase of development
As accountants, advisors and specialists, we recognise the need to balance immediate financial requirements with long-term value creation—particularly vital when managing lengthy, high-cost research and development cycles, regulatory approvals and complex clinical trials that significantly impact your company’s financial position.
For early-stage companies, we help establish solid foundations—ensuring R&D tax credit optimisation, structuring for investment readiness and implementing appropriate governance frameworks. As you scale, we support your growth with specialised services including preparation for targeted funding rounds, tax and accounting compliance and developing robust security processes aligned with UK regulatory requirements.
When approaching liquidity events, we provide strategic guidance whether you’re pursuing an AIM listing, considering a merger or acquisition or exploring private equity investment.
