"Helio is a high-performing business that is able to combine a strong data-driven platform with deep insights. These key strengths position it well against a market backdrop of AI disruption and volatility. It was fantastic to work with the team and to see a successful result, with good preparation (particularly in respect of key datasets) an important factor in this."
