meet the Team
As part of the Ignition family,
supporting entrepreneurs is in our DNA.
We understand the challenges and the excitement of enterprise. Whether at start-up stage, scale up stage or preparing to realise value, this is a journey we have lived personally and professionally.
You need the best and smartest financial support. You need it at the outset to optimise your plans and secure funding in the most efficient way. You need it as you grow, maximising financial performance, creating a fundable and valuable financial record and funding expansion. You need it to cope with the bumps in the road. And you need it to help you deliver your objectives – a strong profitable business and possibly an exit.
Ignition Financial is an agile and dynamic firm of financial experts. We are a sister firm of Ignition Law. We share core values and provide a combined legal, financial and commercial perspective to offer our clients the best and most relevant advice available.
We are here as partners, to share your problems. We are here to help you win and to make your entrepreneurial experience better. You’ll enjoy working with us.
