New partner for corporate team

Bristows has appointed Matt Dennis as partner to its corporate practice. 

Matt has over 24 years' experience and an excellent reputation in international M&A and corporate transactions for clients in technology-related industries. His clients have included corporates, institutions, early stage businesses, management teams and individuals. His expertise in the technology field is a perfect match with Bristows’ TMT and life sciences sector focus, and follows the hire of TMT-focused corporate partner Louise Eldridge earlier in the year. 

Iain Redford, joint managing and corporate partner at Bristows, comments: “Matt is a great addition to our corporate group. His considerable experience and reputation in advising on IP/Tech M&A and financing deals is a perfect strategic fit for us and he is a really good guy to boot.”
 
Matt says: "I am delighted to be joining Bristows at an exciting time for the firm as it pursues its strategy of growing the corporate team by leveraging the firms’ expertise in IP and technology”.
