What our clients say

For the sale of Up Agency, I worked with Sven, Matthias, Rens, and Daniël from Cognos Netherlands. From the very first conversation, it felt right—open, honest, and no nonsense. The communication was informal and fast—no endless email chains, just texting or calling. They truly thought along, took the right steps, and kept the process clear. A great team to work with that I would genuinely recommend. Ralf van Veen, Founder of Up Agency
Throughout the whole process, the Cognos UK team’s consummate professionalism, guidance and unwavering support, ensured that our values were aligned and a smooth transition could be achieved both for our customers, and our high-performing team. Tracy Ebdon-Poole, Founder of TaxCalc
It's never easy to choose a consultant to help you sell your business, but Cognos France was quick to understand our business and, thanks to its professionalism, was able to make the difference in the way it approached and analysed our specific market in the world of franchising. Their responsiveness and support were crucial to the success of this sale. The team supported us at every stage of the sale process, resulting in a highly promising deal for the future of the company and its franchise network. A big well done and a big thank you to the whole team. Philippe COURTOY, Chairman and Founder of La Maison Des Travaux
Cognos UK were mandated to find the right investment partner to support the continued growth of the business over the next five years. Andrew and Ricky spent time understanding our unique value proposition and used their extensive market knowledge to run a focussed but competitive process with minimal disruption to the day-to-day operations. During the process, they and the team provided invaluable support and practical advice throughout and were key in negotiating the key commercial terms for the deal. Simon Hambley, CEO and Founder of Strata Communications
