Inspired Education acquires Mexico’s Wingate School

This cross-border deal includes the sale of the relevant real estate and represents a significant development in Mexico's premium education sector, and also reinforces Inspired Education’s strategic expansion in the Americas.

Wingate School and its shareholders were advised on the sale by law firm Aziz & Kaye.

“The transaction presented several complex legal challenges, particularly in relation to the acquisition of the real estate, which was owned by a third party not involved with the sellers,” the law firm said.

The team at Aziz & Kaye, led by Allan Kaye Trueba, worked closely with the shareholders to guide them through this complex process. Allan was joined by senior ssociate Pedro Gabriel Reynoso Ramín and junior associate Maria Fernanda Lores Vera, who played key roles in bringing this deal together.

Baker McKenzie also collaborated in this transaction, providing legal services to the buyer, with a team led by partner Lorenzo Ruiz de Velasco, with senior associate Pamela Lemus and junior associate Fernando Gandara, all of whom are from the firm’s Mexico City office, and who played essential roles in the transaction.
