Brand experience agency, Strata has acquired venue procurement and event management agency, Trinity Event Solutions.
Founded in 2006 by Jacqui Kavanagh, Trinity Event Solutions is a venue finding agency with experience in the pharma, legal, financial and retail markets.
Strata’s acquisition of Trinity Event Solutions follows its recent appointment of Caroline Lumgair Wiseman as group head of Strategic Meeting Solutions.
EDGE Venues will remain independent and continue to be led by Jacqui Kavanagh. She will maintain collaborative relationships with both Trinity Event Solutions and Strata.
Simon Hambley, CEO of Strata, said: “We have been considering a partnership acquisition in the venue search and management sector for a while, not only to meet growing client needs but to capitalise on an area we haven’t touched on much in the past: Strategic Meetings Management.”
Jacqui Kavanagh, founder and CEO of Trinity Event Solutions, said: “I have known Simon and the Strata team for many years and have admired their approach and passion for excellence in how they operate their business.”
Strata offers a range of event services, including creative, design, planning and execution expertise. The company said continued client wins have driven demand for venue search and management.
Tracy Winsworth, managing director of Trinity Event Solutions, said: “Joining the Strata Group will accelerate this growth and I am sure our venue sourcing and procurement expertise will strengthen the group’s position in the market and stand it in good stead for the future.”
