The small and innovative in-house legal team is led by Simon Cox, general counsel and global head of legal and compliance. Having practiced for over thirty years as a private practice partner in two UK law firms and at a law firm in the US, as well as in-house experience, his leadership is incredibly valuable. The team covers the whole remit of the legal needs of BBOXX’s expanding global portfolio, from the negotiation and sale of solar product assets and the internal governance of the firm, to its intellectual property. The team works tenaciously to protect the integrity of the company and assist it in the expansion of its business across Africa.
