The people behind the deals.

A senior team of operators and dealmakers. No junior analysts running your process, no advice from the sidelines. The people you meet are the people who do the work.

Senior, every seat.

How a mandate is staffed here, and why that decides what the process is worth to you.

Hugo Leprince

Founder & Managing Partner

Co-founded Creed Media and built it from an idea to 150 people, four offices and $75m in sales, running campaigns for Universal Music Group, Warner, Sony, H&M, Red Bull and KFC. Sold a strategic stake to private equity at 12× EBITDA, against a category norm of three to six. Forbes 30 Under 30 Europe. Leads every sell-side mandate from first call to close.

One principal, first call to close

The person you meet in the first conversation runs the mandate. There is no handoff to a deal team you have not met, because there is no bench to hand it to.

Operators, not career intermediaries

We have built, scaled and exited companies ourselves. The judgment we bring to your process was earned on the other side of the table.

A limited book, deliberately

We decline more processes than we accept, so that the people on your mandate have the capacity to run it properly.

Talk to the team.

Whether you are selling, acquiring, or exploring, it starts with one conversation.

  • Your first call is with a senior principal, not a sales team.
  • Sellers leave with an indicative valuation and what is capping it.
  • Buyers leave with a clear read on access and current mandates.
  • Held in confidence, with no commitment on either side.

Yes. We are based at Etihad Towers in Abu Dhabi and regularly travel to founders and buyers.
