Deal Announcement: Corbett Keeling advised pH Associates on its sale to Chime Communications plc

pH Associates, the market leading ‘Real World Data’ and ‘Market Access’ consultancy in the health sector, was sold to OPEN Health, a joint venture with global communications group Chime Communications Plc. pH Associates was set up by Kate Peperell and Lesley Howell in 1999. As the two founding shareholders started to consider an exit for the business they had created, they appointed Corbett Keeling to assess how to grow revenue, build equity and sell the business at the right time for maximum value. Once they had reached this “right time”, Kate and Lesley appointed Corbett Keeling to advise them on the sale of their business.
