Richie Clark commented: “It was a pleasure working with the MIP and Banyan teams on this strategic transaction, which enables MIP to enhance its existing strong position in the UK healthcare market by acquiring a successful complementary business.”

Marc Laprise, CFO of MIP Inc. commented: “This was a very important transaction for MIP and having the support of a very professional team at Fox Williams made it go smoothly. Many challenges occurred during the process and Richie, Hannah and the Fox Williams team were certainly up to the task. I look forward to working with Fox Williams again in the near future!”

Jeff Wigle, Managing Director of Banyan Capital Partners, commented: “Richie and his team did an incredible job representing MIP’s interests in this entrepreneurial transaction. Their knowledge, advice and approach provided considerable value to the deal. I look forward to working with Richie and Fox Williams in the future.”
