TCC Group (TCC, Momenta, and Recordsure) CEO Joe Norburn was recently featured in European Business Magazine, where he discussed how acquisitive firms can drive growth through consolidation. He highlighted that one of the key challenges organisations face is maintaining strong governance, carrying out disciplined due diligence, and ensuring effective integration throughout the consolidation process. Issues overlooked early on often re-emerge later at a significantly higher cost.
