INSPIRED THINKING GROUP (ITG) LIMITED

Shareholders of Inspired Thinking Group (ITG) Limited

Companies House records a single disclosed shareholder for Inspired Thinking Group (ITG) Limited: Inspired Thinking Group Holdings Limited (company number 06830117), a UK private limited company, which holds all three issued ordinary shares of GBP 1.00 each – 100% of the company’s share capital – according to an internal shareholding record dated 7 September 2026. This is independently corroborated by the company’s own Persons with Significant Control (PSC) register, which separately lists Inspired Thinking Group Holdings Limited as a PSC on the basis of “ownership of shares – 75% or more” and “ownership of voting rights – 75% or more,” with effect notified from 10 May 2016. Both sources agree that Inspired Thinking Group Holdings Limited is the sole controlling shareholder, and no minority shareholders are disclosed, so the register appears complete rather than partial.

Ultimate beneficial ownership

Inspired Thinking Group Holdings Limited is itself a corporate entity rather than a natural person, so it cannot be the ultimate beneficial owner. Tracing the PSC register further up the chain, Inspired Thinking Group (ITG) Limited’s own PSC filing separately names Picasso Topco Limited as holding “significant influence or control,” notified with effect from 22 March 2022 (the same date on which a prior PSC, Fort Topco Limited, a Jersey-registered entity, ceased). Picasso Topco Limited’s own PSC register in turn names Be Vi Nominees II Limited (company number 15008569) as holding more than 50% but less than 75% of its shares and voting rights, with the right to appoint or remove directors, notified 7 February 2024 (succeeding Be Vi Nominees Limited, company number 10975207, which held a 75% or greater stake notified 17 February 2022). No natural-person UBO is disclosed at any tier of this chain. Nominee holding vehicles of this kind are typically used in private-equity fund structures, and this pattern is consistent with Bridgepoint’s publicly reported 2022 acquisition of a majority stake in the wider Inspired Thinking Group business, with Equistone Partners Europe reported separately to have reinvested as a minority shareholder – though no Equistone-linked entity was identified on the PSC registers reviewed for this profile. Because the disclosed percentages at each tier are reported only as bands (for example “50% to 75%”) rather than exact figures, and relate to different notification dates, no calculated effective ownership percentage can reliably be produced for this chain.

Data availability

Shareholder and PSC information for Inspired Thinking Group (ITG) Limited is full at the immediate-shareholder and immediate-PSC tier, and is cross-verified across two independent filings. It becomes partial beyond that tier: no natural-person ultimate beneficial owner is disclosed through the reviewed PSC chain, and ownership above the immediate parent is disclosed only in bands. A filing inconsistency was also identified and should be treated with caution: Inspired Thinking Group (ITG) Limited’s own PSC filing pairs the name “Picasso Topco Limited” with company number 13922948, but Companies House’s own company register assigns that number to a different, related entity, Picasso Bidco Limited; the correct company number for Picasso Topco Limited is 13922506, as confirmed both by direct company search and by a separately filed PSC record (for a related company, Intrepia Ltd) that correctly pairs the same PSC name with 13922506.

Directors and officers of Inspired Thinking Group (ITG) Limited

Companies House records three active directors for Inspired Thinking Group (ITG) Limited: Andrew Swinand (American nationality, appointed 7 May 2024), Cormac Bernard O’Shea (Irish nationality, appointed 22 January 2025) and Raju Shah (British nationality, appointed 31 October 2025). All three are recorded as resident in the United Kingdom, with a correspondence address at the company’s Birmingham registered office (Unit 315, Fort Dunlop, Fort Parkway, Birmingham B24 9FD) rather than a personal residential address. No company secretary is currently in post; the sole historical secretary appointment on record (Suzanne Brewer, a nominee appointment made and ended on the same day, 13 September 1994) reflects standard company-formation practice rather than an ongoing role, and most UK private companies are no longer required to appoint a secretary. A further fourteen resigned officer records are held, spanning directors and secretaries appointed between 1994 and 2023. Internal company data reviewed alongside this profile listed only five officer records in total and did not reflect the two most recent director appointments (O’Shea and Shah) or several other historical entries visible on the live Companies House register, indicating that the internal data snapshot pre-dates recent board changes.

Group structure of Inspired Thinking Group (ITG) Limited

Inspired Thinking Group (ITG) Limited is not an independent company: Companies House records confirm it as a controlled subsidiary within a UK private-equity-backed corporate group. Its immediate parent is Inspired Thinking Group Holdings Limited (company number 06830117), which holds 100% of its issued share capital and is separately recorded as its PSC, with 75% or more of shares and voting rights, notified with effect from 10 May 2016. Tracing further up the ownership chain via PSC filings, the next identifiable parent tier is Picasso Topco Limited (company number 13922506), recorded as a PSC of Inspired Thinking Group (ITG) Limited with “significant influence or control,” notified 22 March 2022. Picasso Topco Limited’s own PSC register names Be Vi Nominees II Limited (company number 15008569) as holding a majority (more than 50% but less than 75%) stake, a nominee structure consistent with Bridgepoint’s publicly reported 2022 majority-stake acquisition of the wider group. At least one verified sister entity, Intrepia Ltd (company number 09113984), shares both the same immediate parent and the same PSC chain, confirmed directly on Intrepia Ltd’s own PSC register. Internal corporate-linkage data reviewed for this profile also lists further entities in the Netherlands, Canada and the United States within the same reported tree; these could not be independently verified against their home-country registries within this review and are not presented as confirmed relationships here.

Recent structural changes

• 22 March 2022 – Picasso Topco Limited notified as PSC of Inspired Thinking Group (ITG) Limited, replacing Fort Topco Limited (Jersey), consistent with Bridgepoint’s reported reacquisition of a majority stake in the group from Equistone Partners Europe. Source: Companies House PSC filings; Bridgepoint press release.
• 7 February 2024 – Be Vi Nominees II Limited notified as majority PSC of Picasso Topco Limited, replacing Be Vi Nominees Limited. Source: Companies House.

Data availability

Corporate-linkage information for Inspired Thinking Group (ITG) Limited is partial: the immediate parent and the next PSC tier are clearly disclosed and cross-verified across multiple filings, but ownership percentages above the immediate-parent tier are disclosed only as bands rather than exact figures, and no natural-person ultimate parent or owner is identified. One filing inconsistency was identified and is flagged rather than resolved: Inspired Thinking Group (ITG) Limited’s own PSC filing pairs “Picasso Topco Limited” with company number 13922948, which Companies House’s own register instead assigns to a related entity, Picasso Bidco Limited; the correct number for Picasso Topco Limited (13922506) is confirmed both by direct company search and by a separately filed, correctly paired PSC record for Intrepia Ltd. Internal group-linkage data listing non-UK sister entities (Netherlands, Canada, United States) could not be independently verified within this review.
