I had the privilege of working with Simba for a number of years during my time at Leyton. We worked on multiple projects together where Simba delivered a great service to our mutual clients. I found him to be a natural relationship builder and technically astute as a consultant & tax adviser. This combination of technical capability & commercial awareness make him an asset.

I worked with Simba while he consulted on R&D tax relief and led an investigation. I found Simba to be highly professional, diligent in his work and always extremely friendly.

      I love what I do for a living and look forward to what the InnoFund team & I will be doing to advise and guide companies on how to secure a fair amount of innovation funding to enable them to inject more investment into further R&D activities at the cutting edge of their industry! My passion for understading and simplifying the complex, articulating consisely about such matters and mediating to resolve differences between parties which may arise in relation to the same makes it wasy to see why I am perfectly suited to partner with willing clients within the innovation funding sphere. We have a few new ways of doing things up our sleave as well to help long-term success of innovative companies! Someone also has to take care of the financial reporting to run the business which I will be leading. Show less
