Join us for an exclusive webinar with James Brotherton, CFO of Breedon Group, the FTSE 250 aggregates company, to explore the pros and cons of transitioning from AIM to the Main Market.
This session will examine one of the key capital market trends for growth companies this year, providing practical insight into the strategic, regulatory and governance considerations involved.
Is this move for everyone? Some companies don’t think so. But others hope it will lead to improved investor visibility and liquidity.
Hear directly from James, who has overseen the transition twice in his career.
