These lean and hungry players offer razor-sharp sector expertise, tailor-made solutions, and swift execution, all at fees that don't break the bank. For companies demanding agility and personalized attention in their deals, these hidden gems are turning heads and challenging the status quo.

While submissions are not absolutely necessary—we will combine our stock of industry knowledge with news reports, the general buzz around some firms and publicly available information to select some of the firms on the list—firms are still welcome to send in submissions for consideration.

To submit, please use the attached form by clicking the link above. We will only consider firms with 10 or fewer partners. The deadline for submissions is August 5, 2024. Please send submissions to bingqing.wang@thomsonreuters.com.
