Dalcour Maclaren has just welcomed a significant new investor, and in this episode of DM U&I, we are talking about exactly what that means.
Mike Reynolds, Partner at MML Capital Partners, joins to discuss why MML chose DM out of every business in the market, what a genuine investment partnership looks like versus lazy capital, and how the two businesses plan to grow DM into a national - and potentially international - powerhouse without losing a single thing that makes it what it is today.
The conversation covers the ONETEAM culture that caught Mike's attention from the very first meeting, the extraordinary infrastructure and utilities market opportunity ahead, why innovation is no longer optional for professional services businesses, and how M&A will be used strategically rather than aggressively to get DM on the right buses at the right time.
It also covers careers for life, the DM beacon, what happens to culture when a business doubles in size, and the two people who have had the DM logo tattooed on their bodies - which tells you everything you need to know about what kind of business this is.
This is not a corporate announcement. It is an honest conversation about ambition, people, and what comes next.
