“The difficult decision to sell the company was shared with the professional and dedicated team at Oaklins Fortezza Partners. We felt that on our side of the table we not only had an advisor but also a fourth shareholder, willing to maximize the company’s valuation and defend our positions. We highly recommend Oaklins Fortezza to business owners who are thinking of starting an M&A process.”

“The acquisition is a powerful validation of our business strategy and the significant opportunities for market and product expansion ahead. I couldn’t be more excited to take this to the next level with a partner such as Clio. This came together brilliantly thanks to Oaklins’ support and guidance. They ran a strong process from start to finish, culminating in a fantastic outcome.”
