We are already seeing the benefits of successfully raising investment, having bolstered our Sales team with a number of experienced professionals and with the commercial technology roadmaps it really is an exciting time for the business. It has been a great experience working with Buzzacott, and in particular Andy, the advice and guidance along the way has been invaluable and we look forward to working with them for years to come.”
