Arma Partners provides independent corporate finance advice to companies and investors active in the global Digital Economy.
Founded in 2003, following the dotcom era and with a deep and then contrarian conviction in the long-term growth potential of technology, Arma Partners has grown and evolved in tandem with the global technology ecosystem. Starting with four employees in London focused on software M&A, the firm rapidly evolved its corporate finance advisory practice across the communications, media and technology sector with a transatlantic team.
Today, we employ the largest dedicated advisory team with unparalleled domain expertise and an enviable track record in each of the diverse sub-segments that together comprise the ever-expanding global Digital Economy.
We act as trusted independent advisors to Digital Economy clients throughout their entire corporate lifecycle.
We act as trusted independent advisors to Digital Economy clients throughout their entire corporate lifecycle. We work with founder-led businesses and fast-growing disrupters on landmark private capital financing rounds. We regularly orchestrate ‘home run’ exits for venture capital and growth equity-backed category leaders, often involving a global strategic buyer. With more mature, private equity-owned businesses, we act on either the sell-side or the buy-side, advising on majority buyouts and minority recapitalisation transactions, often involving alternate pools of long-term capital including sovereign wealth funds, family offices and pension funds. We also have a stellar track record of advising large, global, publicly listed companies on complex transactions including take-privates and takeover defence.
We complement local presence and cultural awareness with a truly global perspective and access to international decision-makers, routinely working with our clients on complex cross-border deals, which account for approximately three-quarters of our transactions. Our team of international professionals are based across offices in London, Munich, New York and Palo Alto. Our global reach through our presence in London, Munich, New York and Palo Alto is complemented by affiliate relationships with like-minded advisory firms in the US, Japan, Australia, Israel, Turkey and Brazil. This allows us to facilitate unparalleled access to and transact with a diverse range of investors and strategic acquirers globally.
