A Client's Tale: The Royal Armouries Museum, Leeds

The Royal Armouries was the first arts and heritage project to receive funding through the Private Finance Initiative. In 1993 the author led the team to incorporate Royal Armouries (International) plc, which involved securing institutional investors and structuring all commercial and legal negotiations. This process called on a strong commitment from all parties, as well as technical and organizational capabilities. The museum opened to the public at the end of March 1966.
