SPONSORSPARTNERS
Independent sponsorship agency brandmeetsbrand has acquired Sponsorship Consulting. Managing director of brandmeetsbrand, Karen Morris said: “brandmeetsbrand is performing extremely well in its core business, but the board has been considering how it might broaden and capture market share in the valuable consulting services sector. Sponsorship Consulting has an exceptional reputation in this field and it was a natural complement to our existing offering. As well as reaching out to Sponsorship Consulting’s networks, their Brussels office offers an all-important presence in Europe, which we perceive as essential to any growth strategy”.
Commenting on the acquisition, Pippa Collett, Sponsorship Consulting’s Managing Director, said: “I have long been an admirer of Karen and her agency and was delighted to have the opportunity to integrate with their ambitious plans. Together we will have one of the strongest and most experienced independent teams in the industry.”
brandmeetsbrand will leverage Sponsorship Consulting’s brand equity and expertise. Pippa Collett will join the brandmeetsbrand board. William Fenton will also join the brandmeetsbrand team bringing 20 years of consulting, research and rights holder experience in Brussels and London for clients such as The British Library, The Dubai International Film Festival and The European Space Agency.
