{Andy Ley}Partner, HBJ Gateley
“As well as being great fun to work with, BIG has really been able to understand what we’re trying to achieve as a business and has proactively created media opportunities to reflect that.
Following one article about IPOs in Scotland, I received excellent feedback, including from three intermediaries which wanted to talk to me in more detail about opportunities for taking companies to the capital markets.”
