Traditional SMEs form the foundations of our economy. They make up most of all undertakings, employ the vast majority of our workforce and produce most of our GDP. At the same time, more than 50% of these companies are sole proprietorships. Despite their size, the challenges they face are complex and often require expert handling.

From adopting or launching digital channels and products, to entering new verticals and expanding geographically, our clients look for us to help them design and execute transaction strategies to achieve their goals.
