“Huge thanks to Eddie Harding and Florian Depner from ICON for all the hard work. Selling a company is a complex matter, even when both sides know from day one that joining forces makes all the sense in the world. Therefore I found it invaluable to be surrounded by experienced advisors, especially for me as a first time founder.”
