In order to achieve these aims, we need an investment partner with excellent sector credentials, as well as an appetite to support our growth ambitions over the long-term. In BGF we have found that partner\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"pinktxt\">Adrian Butt, Managing Director at DataScope Systems<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of the investment, Geoffrey Finlay will join the board as non-executive chair (NXC).
