Foster and Partners

The firm was established by Norman Foster in 1967^[8] shortly after leaving his first studio, Team 4.^[10] The firm was originally called Foster Associates before the name was changed to Foster & Partners in 1999.^[11]

In 2007, the private equity company 3i took a stake in the practice. The practice regained complete ownership in June 2014, when the 140 partners bought it back.^[12]

In October 2021, Foster + Partners was bought for an undisclosed sum by a Canadian private investment firm, Hennick & Company, which became the single biggest shareholder of the practice. Foster retains a controlling interest.^[13]

In June 2008, The Guardian published an article highly critical of planned real estate development in a pristine seacoast area in Bulgaria, which is currently under EU environmental protection. The paper cited environmentalists' concerns over the impact of the planned 15,000-inhabitant resort facilities. The Bulgarian partner of the planned real estate development in Bulgaria's pristine seacoast area, Georgi Stanishev, is the brother of Sergei Stanishev, who served as the Prime Minister of Bulgaria between 2005 and 2009 and is also the Leader of the Bulgarian Socialist Party.^[49]
