We assist companies in pre-IPO, IPO and Private Placement of both equities and bonds, ensuring that the communication with the market is beneficial for the company’s valuation.
We build connections between companies and investors such as individual and institutional investors, brokerage houses, data providers, local media as well as opinion makers.
