Daniel Austin:

"We have done a number of deals in life sciences [...] We have underwritten and closed three transactions in the space, and we have three or four deals we are looking at currently. So, we expect to see more opportunities there."

Doug King:

"As partners, our finance offerings sit well alongside each other. [...] This very much opens up the market for us as a partnership and creates an opportunity for us to really own the mid-market lending space."
