Cooper Parry’s teams support like-minded entrepreneurial businesses across the UK and overseas, covering the spectrum of Audit, Tax, R&D, Tech & High Growth, Outsourced Finance Services, Corporate Finance and Wealth Management. In recent years, the Company has grown market share by successfully pivoting from a generalist to a specialist approach, providing tech-enabled accountancy services for high growth technology companies and established businesses across a range of end markets.

Significant follow-on funding is available to support the Accountancy and Wealth Management businesses, which will operate as standalone business units and follow independent M&A strategies.
