Identity launches IR practice,
opens Grand Rapids office
Identity has launched an investor relations practice
headed up by former Microsoft investor relations
veteran, Tim Hanson, who recently joined our team
as vice president of investor relations.
Identity now has the ability to provide strategic
investor relations counsel to both public and private
companies seeking to communicate effectively with
their stakeholders.
“Historically, many public and private companies
seeking investor relations counsel had to look
outside of Michigan,” said Mark Winter, partner at
Identity. “Now, with the launch of our investor
relations practice and the addition of Tim, companies
will have high-level expertise close to home.”
In conjunction with this announcement, Identity is
also pleased to announce the opening of our
Grand Rapids office, to serve the growing West
Michigan market. West Michigan is a strategically
important market, underscored by the fact that Grand
Rapids is Michigan’s fastest-growing metropolitan
region and one of the top
100 fastest-growing metropolitan
areas in the U.S.
Tim will head up both the
IR practice and Grand
Rapids office. His experience
spans nearly a decade,
guiding companies through
initial public offerings, secondary
offerings, equity
offerings, corporate acquisitions
and transactions, quarterly
earnings, annual reports,
shareholder meetings and
investor meetings.
