“Unlike other firms, Ether is very selective on its engagements. Our team knows we’re getting undivided time and attention rather than firms that take on 10 or 12 assignments just so they can collect a bunch of fees every month. Ether is the best we have by far. Their transparency and communication are off the charts.“

Matt Moran
Managing Principal, Head of Business Development
