Delivering innovative solutions for streaming, app development, and content delivery, Lightcast.com aims to help its clients reach their viewers wherever they are in the world. The company is built upon a foundation of core values, used to guide the team in achieving its mission. Lightcast.com prioritises excellence through innovation, staying at the forefront of technology by continuously developing new features and solutions that meet the evolving needs of its clients. This, in turn, allows the company to uphold its commitment to maintaining high standards in the quality of its products and services, delivering true excellence across all operations. Recognising that its success lies in the success of its clients, Lightcast. com endeavours to understand their goals and needs to deliver personalised services that align exactly with their vision. The company believes in transparent and ethical business practices, which ensure trust and reliability in all its partnerships. Prioritising client-centricity and transparency further solidifies Lightcast.com’s reputation as a dependable partner for multi-platform OTT and OVP services. The majority of Lightcast.com’s customers aim to launch TV and mobile apps across the primary device platforms and app stores, such as Apple TV, Fire TV, Roku, Android TV, Samsung TV. Most of these customers either lack TV and mobile apps altogether or have only a limited number and are seeking to expand their portfolio of publishing properties. The company sees many startups, educational institutions and vloggers seeking its services to launch TV apps and mobile apps for streaming purposes. “One of the key reasons content creators and media publishers select Lightcast.com is its cost-efficiency, providing an opportunity to save valuable financial resources compared to other “patchwork solutions”,” says Andreas. “Many large media corporations, schools and universities are transitioning away from developing and maintaining in-house patchwork systems, which involve costly contracts with multiple vendors, extensive in-house staff with diverse skillsets, and complex overhead management. Lightcast.com streamlines OTT and multiplatform publishing for organisations of all sizes, from small businesses to large corporations.” Not only does Lightcast.com deliver financial savings, but the company also provides clients with the ability to conserve time, another compelling factor that drives publishers to choose its services. Lightcast.com leads the market with its proprietary Media Cloud real-time content and app management system which enables users to accomplish more in less time. The system positions all connected publishing properties, including apps, players, podcasts, and social media channels in a single location with streamlined workflows, comprehensive viewer and user data, and reporting. “The Lightcast Media Cloud is an all-in-one platform designed to simplify the process of managing, distributing, and monetising digital content,” Andreas explains. “It offers a comprehensive suite of tools that allows users to upload, store, organise, and distribute videos, audio, images, and other media across various platforms, including websites, mobile apps, OTT services, and social media channels.” Founded in 2010, Lightcast.com is a multi-platform Over-The-Top and Online Video Platform provider. The company offers end-to-end services for creating TV Apps, Mobile Apps and Web Apps, in addition to distributing live-streams and on-demand media to various devices, including Roku, Apple TV, Android TV, Fire TV, Samsung TV, LG TV, and Mobile Apps. Renowned for delivering top-tier tools that aid media management, monetisation, and advertising, Lightcast.com allows users to control all aspects of their content distribution and branding and has been recognised in the 2024 Global Excellence Awards. Join us below as we speak with Andreas Kisslinger, Chief Executive Officer of Lightcast.com, to learn more. L
Casting a Light on Successful Streaming The platform offers users many advantageous features, such as centralised media management with advanced tagging, categorisation, and search functionalities; multi-platform distribution that reaches viewers wherever they are; custom app solutions that enable clients to create branded experiences for their audience; monetisation options, such as subscriptions, pay-per-view, and ad-supported streaming; and built-in advanced analytics tools with insights into audience behaviour, engagement, and content performance. The Lightcast Media Cloud takes the guesswork out of media management, and delivers a seamless experience for all content creators, industry novices or seasoned professionals. The launch of this platform is just one example of many ways that Lightcast.com has impacted the online audio and video media industry. Reflecting on the company’s massive success, Andreas tells us that one recent standout project Lightcast.com has undertaken is the launch of a multi-platform streaming solution designed for a leading educational organisation. This project involved the creation of a custom app suite, enabling the organisation to deliver educational content across web, mobile, and OTT platforms such as Roku, Apple TV, and Amazon Fire TV. “What made this project a success was our close collaboration with the client from the very beginning,” says Andreas. “We took the time to understand their unique needs and goals, which helped us design a solution that was tailored to their audience. Additionally, our ability to integrate the app with their existing systems ensured a smooth user experience, making it easy for users to log in and access content across devices. Overall, the project showcased Lightcast.com’s expertise in creating scalable and versatile content delivery solutions, proving our ability to adapt to industry needs.” Another key factor in its success was Lightcast.com’s agile development process, which allowed the company to adjust and improve based on feedback from the client. Retaining flexibility ensured that the final product not only met but exceeded expectations. As a result, Lightcast. com delivered a highly engaging, user-friendly platform that has received positive feedback and increased user engagement, further highlighting the efficacy of the company’s approach to client-centric development. Another recent project highlighting Lightcast.com’s growth is the expansion of its global Content Delivery Network infrastructure, or CDN. To accommodate for the significant rise in demand for streaming media, the influx of new publishers and brands joining Lightcast.com, and the remarkable audience growth of publishers worldwide, the company integrated several new major CDNs. This incredible expansion added more than 30 new data centres and 70,000 additional streaming servers globally, drastically enhancing Lightcast.com’s presence and distribution across North and South America, Europe, Asia, and Africa. Due to Lightcast.com’s careful planning and strategic partnerships, the project was an enormous success. By expanding its infrastructure, the company insured that content could be delivered with minimal latency, higher reliability, and scalability to meet the growing needs of its clients. “The result has been a smoother, faster, and more efficient streaming experience for audiences worldwide, supporting our mission of seamless content delivery,” Andreas tells us. “This infrastructure upgrade has not only improved performance but also positioned Lightcast.com as a robust and reliable partner for content creators seeking to expand their global reach.” Recognised for its excellence, Lightcast.com proudly displays countless testimonials from previous clients, who praise the company for its efficacy, professionalism, and the excellent quality of its service offerings. Such statements demonstrate the unmatched value of partnering with such an industry frontrunner as Lightcast.com. “What really sets Lightcast.com apart is the level of service and the strategic recommendations they provide,” says Alistair Potts, CEO of FoodyTV. “I’ve worked with a lot of technology vendors, but it’s rare to find a real business partner – one with sound advice, great technology, and fantastic service. As we continue to grow, we’ve relied on our team at Lightcast.com for strategic advice, tech recommendations, or even just to vet ideas.” “In early 2019, I determined the time had come to offer my growing viewership more options for accessing my narrated news and political commentary,” writes Nancy Morgan Hart, Founder and CEO of Headlines with a Voice. “As an independent content creator, the prospect of making the move to TV apps was overwhelming. But once I decided on Lightcast.com’s services, they quickly took care of everything. From developing my apps, relaunching my channels on multiple platforms, and promptly responding to my questions, the team have proven themselves to be professional and highly efficient. My only regret is that I waited so long to make my move.” From its remarkable multi-platform service to its ability to provide clients with unparalleled support, Lightcast.com is certainly the company to beat. Since its inception, the company has been relentless in its pursuit of excellence, delivering high quality solutions and achieving total client satisfaction. Moving forward, Andreas tells us that Lightcast.com is focusing on the continual expansion of the Lightcast Media Cloud, encompassing additional automation features for media workflows, new monetisation capabilities, and expansions of its Analytic Suite within the Media Cloud. With its sights set on the future, Lightcast.com is on a straight trajectory to success that shows no signs of slowing down. The company will continue to innovate and pioneer the market with new offerings and enhancements geared towards improving the client experience. This unwavering commitment to both its clients and the wider industry has rightfully earned Lightcast.com the title of Best Contemporary Media Streaming Provider 2024 – USA.

8 | Acquisition International, Issue 7 2023 s the software product division of HCLTech, India’s premier multinational IT consulting firm, HCLSoftware has unprecedented access to cutting-edge AI and hyperautomation technology, which it then uses to help businesses as they accelerate their development with a level of speed, flexibility, and control that was previously thought impossible. Leveraging the values of innovation, customer-centricity, agility, and excellence, this company has changed the game since it was established by its parent firm back in 2019. From AI-driven orchestration to the flexibility to grow with clients, the solutions that the expert team here provide at every juncture position this company’s entire suite as being worthy of this acclaim. However, as suggested by the title that has been bestowed upon it, we believe the standout feature of HCLSoftware’s portfolio to be its comprehensive AIgenerated workflow automation service, which is not only a particularly bright spot in the HCL Universal Orchestrator Hyperautomation Enabler (more on that later) but also the first technology of its kind to come to fruition in this fiercely competitive market. What makes HCLSoftware a key player in this sphere is its ability to consistently deliver automation solutions that are comprehensive, scalable, and intelligent, ones that help to significantly orchestrate and streamline workflows across a series of diverse environments – be it the most modern cloud-based application or the legacy system a partner business has proudly stuck by for decades. Underpinning this is a unique ability to combine AI decision making with traditional automation processes, resulting in seamless hyperautomation, which essentially means that an entire business is automated effectively. This is the primary aim of HCLSoftware’s aforementioned HCL Universal Orchestrator Hyperautomation Enabler, which is essentially a cloud-native process orchestration tool that makes hyperautomation possible by using a series of advanced technologies to empower businesses and help them to streamline and optimise their entire operations. In an environment where the workflows of a business pass through humans, online systems, and often ‘digital workers’ (chatbots and virtual assistants), trying to maintain an aligned and coordinated operation is one of the biggest challenges companies face today. HCLSoftware thus recognised the need for a single orchestrator, a ‘backbone’ to a company’s innovation efforts that could work with a number of different automation tools and applications to optimise and direct a business’ operation to a more simple and encompassing path. Hence the HCL Universal Orchestrator, which enables seamless hyperautomation and boasts such capabilities as business process mapping, end-to-end orchestration, and workflow modelling, all whilst maximising an organisation’s productivity at every turn. Simply put, clients who invest in HCLSoftware’s AI-generated workflow automation service gain access to intelligent automation that uses AI to create the best possible workflows, reducing in faster processing times and reduced manual effort. As a representative for the company explains: “Our AI algorithms adjust workflows based on current data, ensuring processes are always efficient and relevant. Through AIgenerated workflow automation, clients will experience a new level of efficiency in their digital transformation journeys.” One example of this system working perfectly for a customer was in the case of Sara Assicurazioni, an Italian insurance company that has been operating for more than 70 years and had undergone considerable growth when it reached out to HCLSoftware. The client was already making use of a workload automation solution at the time for the likes of creating insurance policies and processing claims, but they wanted more. Like many others, this client has seen the potential of the Universal Orchestrator which is currently in the test environment. The Universal Orchestrator will later be moved to production, and the actual use of the product will begin. From being able to use one solution across a range of different cloud services providers, to leveraging AI to help automate daily tasks and enhance overall operational efficiency, ensuring the continuity and resilience of their business was this client’s primary focus, and the HCL Universal Orchestrator was able to help with just that. Since this technology has been designed to carry out the real-time orchestration of cloud applications, as well automate workflows across a range of systems, it proved to be a more than an apt solution. This is all comes down to the HCL Universal Orchestrator having been created on the back of a growing need from businesses for an enterprise process orchestrator, a piece of technology that can handle every element of digital business support, from connecting different automation domains to offering end-to-end orchestration for IT and business processes. Equally important for customers is that full control, observability, auditing, and compliance is achieved, all of which are delivered expertly by this cloud-native orchestrator that boasts an endless amount of uses in an infinite number of scenarios. A business driven to empower enterprises through the informed use of highly intelligent automation solutions which deliver processing that is much faster and more efficient than the industry standard, HCLSoftware’s technology enables automation to be carried out in a way that innovates and adapts in real time. Recognised as the Best AI & Automation Software Company 2024 - India for its industry-leading efforts, seamless orchestration across an array of systems, applications, and platforms is now more than just a vision, it is a reality, all thanks to the experts at HCLSoftware.

A company spokesperson adds: “Another important development is the need for organisations to open their process orchestration tools to citizen developers, so that – besides developing their business applications – they can define the automation processes to orchestrate them. We are addressing these needs by streamlining the definition of workflows with our UNO AI Pilot that leverages GenAI technology.” This is just one of the many ways that this forward-looking company is ensuring future success for both itself and its clients. Over the next five years in particular, the team at HCLSoftware remain driven to continuously innovating in the fields of automation and orchestration. This will be achieved by focusing on a number of key areas, including a focus on sustainability and embedding ecofriendly solutions into automations, establishing a cycle of continuous improvement to see products evolve alongside both industry trends and client expectations, and the incorporation of Agentic AI, a process which further empowers autonomous decision making across workflows. With a number of projects currently in the pipeline, HCLSoftware’s roadmap remains brimming with initiatives to demonstrably enhance its orchestration capabilities, especially in the realm of human interactions and AI-powered scenarios. Partnerships will prove vital in the business achieving its aims, be they with other HCLSoftware Global AI and Automation Excellence from India’s Finest products or ISV products, as this will help the business to realise its vision of an open automation platform with integrated solutions for the likes of data pipelines and business applications. In essence, HCLSoftware’s focus on business process automation through AI-based solutions sees end-to-end orchestration offered for legacy and cloud-native systems alike, with productivity able to be maximised as AI is applied to automation to offer increased intelligence, boost operational excellence, and, in the long run, drive autonomous processes to heights that were previously unimaginable. Clients such as Philips, Siemens, and HSBC already partner with this firm, underpinning its global dominance in this field. For its unwavering mastery and the suite of pioneering solutions it has continued to provide across this setting, HCLSoftware is a business more than deserving of being named as the Best AI & Automation Software Company 2024 - India.

10 | Acquisition International, Issue 7 2023 More Quality for Less Headaches According to environmental psychologist Susan Clayton, a person’s home is part of their self-definition, which is why we decorate and modify our immediate surroundings to match our taste. Many individuals will move and remodel their homes until they curate the environment that perfectly encapsulates their identity. As inflation and interest rates rise, much of the population is opting to remodel and add onto, rather than move entirely. This shift is creating a high demand for top-tier remodeling companies, such as More for Less Remodeling. As the company is featured in the 2024 Global Excellence Awards, we speak with Co-Founder Angela Courtwright below. Contact: Angela Courtwright Company: More for Less Remodeling Web Address: https://www.moreforlessstl.com/ On a mission to provide the highest quality home remodeling services to its clientele, More for Less Remodeling is based in Missouri. Owned and operated by dynamic husband-and-wife team Chris and Angela Courtwright, this family-owned business has been within the Courtwright family for more than two decades. As a design-build firm, More for Less Remodeling focuses on full kitchen and bathroom renovations, as well as custom basement and home additions. This process begins with stripping the rooms to bare bones to start fresh, before delivering the higher end, top-quality work for which the company has become renowned. Opting to work solely on forever homes, More for Less Remodeling does not extend its services to rental properties or repair work. This allows the company to offer truly quality services, not needing to split attention and resources between a myriad of offerings. “We treat every project as if it were a project for ourselves,” Angela tells us. “We understand that home remodeling will disrupt your daily routine, so we strive to provide a quality service in a timely manner.” Within the competitive world of the remodeling industry, it is crucial that companies recognise and nurture the qualities that enable them to stand out. More for Less Remodeling strives to build close relationships with all customers. When working with a client, the company develops a deep understanding of their project objectives and works to accommodate each project to the client’s specific needs. In further alignment with its commitment to client-centricity, Angela tells us that More for Less Remodeling conducts extensive research into the products it uses to ensure that it is installing quality that will last. To achieve the best outcome for each client and project, More for Less Remodeling takes on the form of a one-stop-shop. With designers, architects, project coordinators, and installers, clients needn’t travel from shop to shop to complete one project – they can receive a top-tier end-to-end service from More for Less Remodeling. “Everyone on our team are employees of More for Less Remodeling; we do not use sub-contractors,” says Angela. “There are not many, if any, companies like us offering every aspect of the project under one roof. We have showrooms, designers, coordinators, and installers to offer a red-carpet service and handle every aspect of the project for you, so that you can sit back and enjoy.” Such stellar services are expertly delivered by a team of industry professionals who have been employed with More for Less Remodeling in the long-term, some of whom have even spent 20 years with the company. More for Less Remodeling is very selective when hiring new talent, ensuring that each member of the team meets the company’s high standards of service. “We strive to provide perfection and complete customer satisfaction,” adds Angela. At present, the company is working on the extension of a 1,100ft² house that will become 2,400ft² upon the project’s completion. More for Less Remodeling will be simultaneously revamping the house, with everything from the roofline to the foundation to be changed. On this same street, the company is building a new home that will reach one-and-a-half stories and 2,800ft². Previous to this, Angela tells us, More for Less Remodeling completed two total renovations of custom homes on the same street. Through this series of projects, More for Less Remodeling is effectively redeveloping the entire cul-de-sac, transforming 1,100ft² homes into sanctuaries spanning more than 2,000ft². As for the future, Angela tells us that the company is striving towards the continual improvement and enhancement of its services. “We are always looking for and finding better ways to do things,” she says. “We want our remodels to last, so we research quality products and will always use top-quality products in our remodels.” More for Less Remodeling plays close attention to market trends and is always ahead of the curve when it comes to integrating them into new designs. For its commitment to client satisfaction, and the remarkable quality of its services, More for Less Remodeling has been named the Best Family-Owned Remodeling Company 2024 – Missouri. Oct24016

12 | Acquisition International, Issue 7 2023 Sep24201 Restoring Your Land and Protecting Our Planet ounded in 2006, Dunton operates with the environment and sustainability at the forefront of its methodologies, allowing this passion to drive its design and shape its success. Acting as a strategic partner to its clientele, Dunton is sensitive to the delicate balance between cost, time, and sustainability, and will work closely alongside its client from the outset to guarantee safety, maximise quality, and deliver results. The company operates four fixed waste treatment facilities across the UK, in Walsall, Wolverhampton, Ellesmere Port, and Birmingham. Each facility is permitted to treat a range of hazardous and non-hazardous waste, including compost, contaminated soils, sewage grits, soils impacted with asbestos, and street cleaning residues. Dunton uses an expert combination of its unique in-house technology and waste management skills, alongside its technical capability, network of waste treatment and soil recovery facilities, and waste removal services to deliver the highest value and most sustainable solutions to handling and managing waste. For this approach, Dunton has been recognised as the Best Ground Remediation and Waste Management Company 2024 – UK. “Dunton stands out in the remediation and waste management industry through its commitment to innovation, sustainability, and client-focused solutions,” James tells us. “Our values ensures that Dunton delivers highquality services, fosters a positive and collaborative work environment, and supports sustainable business growth.” The company prides itself on its cutting-edge technology, commitment to sustainability, trusting client relationships, high ethical standards, integrity, and its strong values of ‘Show You Care’, ‘Do Your Best’, and ‘Do the Right Thing’. Such qualities ensure that the company remains competitive within the ever-evolving landscape of the environmental and ecological services industry. The industry is continually shifting to reflect the changing laws, regulations, and behaviour patterns relating to environmental sustainability. James tells us that one of the most significant recent developments in the industry is the increasing focus on Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances, or PFAS, contamination. Often referred to as ‘forever chemicals’, there have been stricter regulations introduced worldwide to tackle the risks associated with PFAS in soil and water. “While the increased regulatory focus on PFAS has raised operational challenges, such as higher compliance costs and the need for specialised technology, it has also positioned Dunton as a leader in this area,” James reflects. “By responding proactively with innovative products, the company has turned this challenge into an opportunity to expand its services and strengthen its market position.” Dunton effectively navigated this development by launching innovative products that are designed specifically to address PFAS contamination, such as TerraSorb and AquaSorb. These cutting-edge solutions offer clients cost-effective and sustainable methods to address the urgent risk that PFAS contamination poses, ensuring regulatory compliance and reducing landfill disposal costs. In addition to this, the company’s focus on research and development has enabled it to stay ahead of the curve, ensuring compliance with new regulations whilst delivering the most cutting-edge solutions to its clients. Not only has Dunton been delivering the latest in waste management solutions, but the company has also completed numerous projects that significantly impact the surrounding community. Most recently, Dunton has been involved in the Oasis Academy project, completed in partnership with Wates Construction. Based in Bristol, the Oasis Academy project will see the construction of a much-needed secondary school that will cater for 900 pupils. This project has showcased Dunton’s capabilities in collaboration, problem-solving, and maintaining excellent communication throughout the process. A testimonial from Tom Reynolds, Project Manager at Wates Construction, reads, “I have been very impressed with the attitude of everyone from Dunton throughout the tender process and project delivery. While challenges arose, the Dunton management team tackled them with excellence, fostering a great collaborative approach with Wates.” As for the future, James tells us that Dunton has developed a stringent plan for growth in the coming years. “Over the next five years, Dunton plans to innovate by focusing on advanced soil treatment technologies, promoting a circular economy, and digitalising operations to improve efficiency and sustainability,” he explains. “Our key goals include expanding PFAS treatment solutions, increasing recycles aggregate production, and reducing carbon emissions. Dunton also aims to expand its hub network, both in the UK and internationally, targeting new markets and emerging waste streams. These initiatives will strengthen Dunton’s leadership in delivering cutting-edge, sustainable solutions to its clients.” Contact: James Hill Company: Dunton Web Address: https://duntonenvironmental.com/ Dunton is a market leading company in the design and implementation of ground and water remediation solutions for land restoration.

14 | Acquisition International, Issue 7 2023 Sep24455 Quality, Solution-Based Commercial Legal Services Commencing operations in January 2021, Nirenstein Attorneys Inc. was founded by company namesake Grant Nirenstein, a distinguished lawyer whose experience in the field includes nearly a decade-long stint as a partner at one of South Africa’s leading national law firms. Prior to this, he gained invaluable experience at a highly regarded Cape Town-based law firm, where he was retained following the completion of his articles of clerkship. With this expertise at the helm, Nirenstein Attorneys is able to offer a full-service approach to commercial law, with the consistency, customisability, and exceptional nature of its advice having resulted in it being recognised as the Leading Boutique Law Firm of the Year 2024 - South Africa. Contact: Grant Nirenstein Company: Nirenstein Attorneys Inc. Web Address: https://nirenstein.co.za/ Nirenstein Attorneys strives to deliver every solution across its comprehensive portfolio with industry-high levels of integrity, resulting in a bespoke approach that is anchored in a steadfast commitment to achieving the desired outcomes for clients. More than a law firm, Nirenstein Attorneys aims to be a trusted partner to its client base, which ranges from individuals and small business through to national corporations, all of which come to it in search of reliable and strategic guidance that spans commercial law in its entirety. The expertise and strong ethical foundation at Nirenstein Attorneys Inc. originates from Grant Nirenstein himself, a highly regarded figure in commercial law whose reputation precedes him. Throughout a distinguished tenure as a partner at one of South Africa’s top national law firms, Mr. Nirenstein built an industry-leading track record, delivering results for major corporations nationwide. Before this partnership, he held roles at other reputable law firms, each providing valuable opportunities to refine his skills across the diverse landscape of legal practice. With years of experience already under his belt, the decision to go into business for himself was an easy one for Mr Nirenstein, who sought to operate with greater flexibility and efficiency than he could working in a larger, national firm, whilst at the same time putting the interests of his clients at the centre of everything he did. The small, boutique nature of this award-winning South African law firm allows Mr Nirenstein to be more practical in his approach, affording every client personalised advice and representation. Beyond this, Nirenstein Attorneys is able to ensure that its legal expertise is not only exceptional but delivered in a more streamlined and cost-effective manner than is possible from a huge law firm that is juggling many clients and their cases at once. The quality, depth, and professionalism inherent across these services are reflective of what is expected from a leading law firm, with the consistent results it has garnered over the past three-and-a-half years standing as a testament to the strengths of its unique tactics. Exploring this method further, to say it is rooted in an unwavering client commitment would be an understatement. As Mr Nirenstein himself explains it: “Our focus is on delivering pragmatic, results-oriented solutions that address the real-world challenges our clients face, guiding them through complex legal issues with clarity and dedication.” He adds, “we take pride in fostering long-term relationships built on trust, integrity, and a relentless pursuit of the best possible outcomes for our clients.” Deeply committed to maintaining its frontrunner position, Nirenstein Attorneys keeps its operation small, with just four team members total at present. Continuous growth means that expansion is on the cards for the firm however, which already proudly handles client cases throughout the country, from litigation and dispute resolution to property, employment, and insurance law. As it continues to grow, Nirenstein Attorneys’ dual commitment to client satisfaction and legal excellence remains front and centre. A South African commercial law firm upholding the highest of standards across its multifaceted operation, Nirenstein Attorneys’ unequalled consistency has resulted in a number of industry awards over the past few years, with Grant Nirenstein himself having been recognised by Best Lawyers for his distinction three years in a row. The firm itself was then celebrated in the same programme earlier this year, solidifying the all-round mastery of the small team that Nirenstein Attorneys has built. From its home base in the heart of Cape Town, Nirenstein Attorneys Inc. is setting a new gold standard for legal excellence, providing clients with the best of the both worlds – a firm that is small and bespoke whilst also being more than capable of leveraging best-in-class knowledge to achieve favourable outcomes time and again. Its boutique nature will continue to set the firm apart as it expands over the coming years, and we wish Mr Nirenstein and his team all the best as they continue to put the needs of their clients above all else.
