Testimonials

We’re always proud to share the success of our deals, but don’t take our word for it – see what our clients say.

“ICON ran a global sales process, which yielded the very best outcome for AVISA’s shareholders. We are a global business and it was important for us to appoint advisers with international reach. They ran a slick process which achieved a healthy competitive deal – all to timetable from appointment to completion. They are certainly a team you want on your side when selling your business, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.”

Justin Goatcher
CEO & Founder

“ICON’s track record and reputation opened many doors to potential sources of funds that would have been unavailable to an early stage business like ours. They offered sound, insightful and timely advice throughout the whole process, allowing us to successfully raise the equity required in a difficult market environment.”

Ken Gibbs
CFO

“When we were seeking to appoint advisers it was essential for us to work with a specialist firm who could bring international investors to the table. This was the prime reason for appointing ICON and they delivered. ICON ran an international process and secured the Spanish energy giant Repsol as not only an investor but also as a key strategic partner, providing us access to energy markets around the world. We have been delighted by the service provided by ICON and the breadth of their international relationships.”

Hans van Breugel
CEO

“If you are looking for deep sector knowledge of the global buyers then ICON will ensure that you will achieve the best possible result. ICON demonstrated this as they secured a Latin American based-buyer that was a perfect strategic fit that provided Hydra with a platform to expand into emerging markets.”
