Hawksmoor Partners has moved into Estonia to work with new clients in the technology sector.
The London-based specialist provides support services for small and innovative businesses that are seeking to aggressively disrupt the markets they enter. This includes asset management, agriculture, logistics, envirotech, social media and alternative lending businesses.
Hawksmoor believes that many smaller companies in the Baltic region and Finland have the ambition and the potential to take themselves global quickly, but lack the expertise and the resources to do so.
Director of Hawksmoor Partners Stuart Fieldhouse said: “Despite the Brexit vote, small companies and investment managers from across Europe still see London as a hub for professional expertise and ready access to capital. While we have successfully served our clients from our base here in the UK, we also recognise the importance of having a permanent presence in those countries where we see a rich pipeline of innovative talent coming to the market.
“We felt it was essential to have a local presence in Tallinn, with personnel who can meet with our clients on their doorstep, when it is convenient for them,” Fieldhouse added. “At the same time, this allows us to match our own in-house expertise with marketing and structuring to those businesses in the region which need it the most.”
