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.
“Working with ICON on our Series A fundraising was an extremely valuable experience for Preservica. ICON’s deep knowledge of the UK technology investment market, and how to best approach potential investors with our unique business value proposition for Digital Preservation, paved the way for significant interest from a number of investment partners. Throughout the entire fund raising process, ICON acted as a trusted advisor ensuring an optimal result for our company and all our stakeholders. We are extremely pleased with the professionalism and personal attention that ICON have brought to this project.”
Mike Quinn
CEO
“We are delighted with the outcome of the M&A process. ICON secured two market leaders in their respective territories and demonstrated their high level of professionalism, deal negotiating skills and tenacity throughout in achieving these two very good deals for the shareholders of LogBuy.”
Lars Peter Busch
Chairman
“Our experience with ICON has been quite extraordinary; they are hard working, dedicated, determined and very proactive. They immediately understood our problems, shared our vision and helped us make it happen.”
David Bailey
CEO
“Selling a business is a far from straightforward journey. We were delighted with ICON, they introduced us to a variety of interested buyers and negotiated an attractive deal for shareholders but also provided solid advice to help us navigate around the banana skins that were thrown in our direction.”
John Gilleran
CEO
“ICON provided excellent advice throughout the process. When, after an approach, we decided to look at options, ICON was able to generate very healthy interest from a range of international buyers and, in the end, secured an acquirer that was not previously known to us. Needless to say, we are very pleased with the outcome and achieved all of our core objectives on the sale of PleaseTech with their help.”
David Cornwell
CEO
“The medical technology provided by Clinical Computing is used by hospitals in Europe, North America and Australia. The sale involved a number of complex international aspects, working with a trusted adviser that skilfully managed these elements of the transaction proved very valuable and led to the deal being completed within a short time frame. It was a pleasure working with the team at ICON.”
Sanjay Gandhi
CEO
“This acquisition will allow us to enrich our expertise in digital marketing, accelerating the digitalization of our affinity solutions and further growing our business.”
Lorraine Higham
Managing Director
“I can thoroughly recommend Brian and his team at ICON. He ran a tight and competitive exit process for us, which ultimately led to high number of formal offers. That not only gave us terrific choice but also useful leverage in negotiations. Maximising our shareholder value was important, but getting the right cultural fit was also very important to us as owner/managers. Gamma ticked all the boxes. Brian was invaluable in driving up the value and managing the exit process but also had the experience and commitment to safely navigate us through what can be a daunting process.”
Scott Millar
Chief Executive
“I have been very impressed by the dedication and advice of ICON, who have been critical to a successful outcome.”
Dr Paul Pankhurst
Founder and CEO
“We’re very grateful to have worked with Monica, Nicky and the ICON team. This was our first time going through this process. Aside from managing the round, Monica and Nicky guided us and supported us each step of the way, which was tremendously valuable and the result was a deal that we’re all delighted with.”
