Why Convex?
Convex was established to provide superior M&A advice to underserved, entrepreneur-led businesses across the £10m to £250m value range, considering a sale of their business.
Being sell-side only M&A advisors makes Convex genuinely different.
It ensures that we are aligned with you, positioned to sell your business with zero conflict; fighting your corner and offering the straight-talking M&A advice needed to maximise sale price and get a deal over the line. With no allegiance to buyers and without fear of extracting every last pound and pence. When it comes to buyers, we think outside of the box. Our forte is identifying and transacting with global strategic buyers. We believe they represent best synergy, value, long term home and cleanest exit.
Don’t just take our word for it.
Our results speak for themselves but find out what it’s like to work with us, directly from the business leaders who have trusted Convex to realise their ambitions.
Personally and as a management team, we were very impressed with Convex and their approach from start to finish. The quality of work, from the initial introductory teaser through to the last paperwork in the deal was exceptional.Stuart Milton Managing Director at Metallisation
They set out clear expectations, provided guidance at every step, created an excellent buyer pool, negotiated multiple offers and ultimately achieved a very successful conclusion for the Shareholders and for the ongoing legacy of the Company.Neil Smith Group CEO at Swift-Cut
Convex tirelessly assisted us throughout the deal and were on hand at every step.Simon Orange Founder & Chairman at CorpAcq
The Convex Team identified the perfect strategic buyer for Catax in Ryan and were exceptional at managing the transaction to a successful completion.Mark Tighe CEO at Catax
The Convex team are undoubtedly some of the most talented people I have had the pleasure of working with and they made the all-consuming and challenging process as seamless as possible whilst delivering an exceptional result for myself and the Business.James Owen Founder at Outdoor Toys
When selling our business, we wanted a top M&A advisory team to help us navigate and get our deal done. Convex absolutely delivered on this – they are masters of negotiation and dealing with the inevitable hurdles.Marc Poulaud CTO & Co-Founder at Isosec
Three things stand out 1. their truly accomplished and experienced team, 2. knowledge of the potential buyers in our sector and international reach and 3. the strength of a level mind to remove emotion from the deal.Chris Harris Founder & CEO at Lawyer Checker
Convex made sure that both sides of the transaction were kept informed at every stage and brokered a fantastic deal for everyone involved. I wouldn’t hesitate to use them again in the future.Matthew Epps Managing Director at Oprema
Convex’s approach was instrumental in their selection, and once selected they proved to be outstanding in their knowledge and approach to maximising the deal value – I cannot recommend them highly enough.Lance Bennett CEO at Renovotec
