Strong Growth for Oderis Iberica
Image item
It has been over a year now since Oderis set up business in Spain with the opening of its Madrid office. From the very beginning, the firm experienced strong momentum, carrying out more than twenty missions for French corporate or private equity players looking to make acquisitions in Spain and Portugal, as well as for local clients.
 
The team, led by a Franco-Spanish duo—Ignacio Ruiz Poveda on one side and Benjamin Piquet on the other—provides strong local expertise combined with a French perspective when the client is French. This unique approach effectively brings together the best of both cultures in a highly distinctive strategy for this market. The team has already grown to ten professionals, all coming from Big Four firms and eager to be part of the entrepreneurial adventure that Oderis offers in this new market.
