On April 23, 2019, SLR Consulting, a global leader in environmental and advisory solutions, announced that it had acquired Novus Environmental Inc., a 25-person firm based in Guelph, Ontario.

The Novus acquisition will bring additional capability to SLR's existing North American business in the areas of Air Quality, Noise and Vibration, and Wind and Climate. The Novus team will join SLR's Canada business, which will now be 280 strong with 18 offices.

Gowling WLG advised SLR in this acquisition with a team that included David Campbell, Cara Stoller and Stephen Franchetto (corporate/M&A), Paul Carenza (tax) and Melanie Polowin (employment).
