We have advised discoverIE Group plc, the international designer and manufacturer of customised electronics, on its acquisition of Keymat Technology Ltd, a leading specialist in human–machine interface (HMI) solutions.

Keymat designs and manufactures assistive HMI products used in commercial and industrial applications. Its acquisition represents a significant addition to discoverIE’s rapidly growing Magnetics & Controls division and complements the company’s focus on customised electronics solutions for sectors including medical, security and transport.

Our Corporate and M&A team advised on the transaction, led by partner Andrew Mills, senior associate Chris Doherty, solicitor Shaaf Alam and trainee solicitor Alex Bones.

“We’re pleased to have supported discoverIE on its acquisition of Keymat, which complements discoverIE’s growth strategy and strengthens its customised electronics offering. Our team’s experience advising UK‑listed companies and acquisitive corporates on strategic transactions ensured focused, practical counsel from initial offer discussions through to completion.”

Andrew Mills, Partner

We value their commercial approach and the way the team integrates seamlessly with discoverIE’s project teams.”
