Osborne Clarke advises shareholders of Daintta Group Holdings Limited on its investment from LDC

International legal practice Osborne Clarke has advised the shareholders of leading technical and business professional service firm Daintta Group Holdings Limited (Daintta) on its investment from LDC, the private equity arm of Lloyds Banking Group.

Daintta provides technical and business professional services, helping clients to design, secure and protect their data and technology systems. It delivers high-complexity technology projects across data intelligence, cyber security, networks, communications and AI engineering.

LDC is backing Daintta’s management team, led by co-founders Justin Teutsch, Abu Sayed and M Alexander. The investment will support the business’ ambitious organic growth strategy, underpinned by the expansion of its professional services and the continued deepening of its specialist, security‑critical competencies.

This deal demonstrates Osborne Clarke's expertise in advising fast-growing companies in the technology sector on all aspects of a complex and strategically important investment. By bringing together specialists across multiple sectors and service lines, we were able to deliver results smoothly and in line with our clients' strategic objectives. We’ve really valued working alongside Daintta and are excited to see the impact their partnership with LDC will have on their future.
