This funding will allow us to acquire and to grow more high-potential companies in the energy sector. We've had a long-standing relationship with Mike Sibson and his colleagues,​ so BGF was top of our list when we wanted to expand Frontrow's capability. We’re not just tapping into the capital that BGF​ can supply but into its expertise and network too. ​
