Professor Moataz Attallah, School of Metallurgy & Materials, College of Engineering & Physical Sciences

Simon managed academic research consultancy for me in excess of £700k in the past 10 years, including projects with companies in the UK and abroad. Simon has streamlined the process to the level that it becomes totally hassle-free for me as an academic, where I can dedicate my focus and attention to the delivery of the technical part of the consultancy, while he manages the contractual and commercial aspects of the projects. While I saw other colleagues complaining about the administrative loads involved in setting up a limited company to manage their consultancy activities, Simon’s support shielded me totally from this.
