The transaction, which closed in July 2022, was led by Acuity Advisors’ team of corporate finance professionals.
Matthew Byatt, Managing Partner at Acuity said:
“It has been a great experience to be involved in the transaction between Minima and Bosch and offer our strategic advice to the process. The perfect fit between the two companies was evident. We are pleased to have contributed to this successful transaction.”
