In a move that will build on its leading position in the market and bring together experts across the business, Partners& has launched a national science and technology practice.

In line with the UK government’s commitment to focusing on the growth and development of this important part of our economy, Partners& is positioning itself to deliver a unique proposition to this complex, fast moving and innovative sector.

Led by Hanna Beaumont, Client Partner (Science & Tech), the Partners& team has rich experience and specialist insight into the challenges and risks inherent in science and tech businesses at the various stages of their development. The team will be actively expanding to include representatives in each of the UK’s technology hubs poised to scale up and build upon their track record of providing personal service and meaningful advice to clients.

Hanna said: “I am excited about expanding the reach of our Science & Tech expertise through our existing Partners& national footprint”.
