Wallace advises the founders of gasworld.com Limited on its private equity backed management buyout
The Wallace team recently advised Karen and John Raquet, the founders of gasworld.com Limited, on the sale of the company to its senior management team backed by private equity firm Mobeus Equity Partners.
gasworld has been the focal point for global industrial gas news, views and intelligence for nearly 20 years, providing current and topical news on its industry leading media platform, as well as hosting globally recognised events and providing in depth market analysis via its Business Intelligence unit.
The company, founded in 2003, set out to provide more transparency in the technical world of industrial gases, through the introduction of information channels that did not really exist.
Corporate partner John Woodhouse led the Wallace team. Ilya Alexandrov and Jessica Daly assisted on corporate matters. Leigh Janes advised on employment matters and Jocelyn Harris-Cooke provided property input.
“Both Karen and I were delighted to have the Wallace team be part of our advisors and throughout the process they provided professional and timely advice at all times but more importantly we had full confidence in them as well. When things looked like they were becoming difficult they provided the reassurances to keep our spirits up and see us through delivery. Thank you John, Ilya, Jessica and the rest of the team.”
