Zibrant, the event services company, has bought RAND, the industry’s first "venue finder":http://www.venues.org.uk.
“This is an important and complementary acquisition that delivers us a strong strategic and business fit, essentially it is an ideal partnership in a market where there are an increasingly small number of quality players,” says Zibrant MD, Chris Madge. “We expect that RAND’s professionalism and reputation will enable us to broaden our revenue base while continuing to grow our profits and further build on our planned organic expansion. This acquisition positions us well for the near and long term and provides an attractive market dynamic in terms of buying power and industry leverage.”
