Brian had been Chairman of Midven since 2009. Explaining his decision to step down, he explained to Insider Media’s Jon Robinson, how he had taken the decision based on the continued growth and development of Heligan Partners and its clients.

“I helped Managing Partner, Tim Grasby, to set up the business,” Brian explained, “and it has been hugely exciting as we set about our mission of approaching corporate finance advisory and private equity in a new way.

“Both businesses have made excellent progress, their client focus, expertise and transparency are resonating with clients and investors alike. Stepping down from my involvement in Midven will allow me to commit more time to their growth.”
