GP Bullhound acquires AdMedia
London-based VC investor and corporate finance house GP Bullhound has acquired New York-headquartered AdMedia Partners, an M&A adviser to marketing and media businesses.
The deal comes as a response to requests from the VC investor's network of entrepreneurs to tap into rising US investment in Europe, GP Bullhound said.
Following the acquisition, five senior deal-makers will join the investment team. In addition to the newly established presence in New York, the firm also operates offices in London, San Francisco, Stockholm, Berlin, Manchester, Paris, Madrid and Hong Kong.
Founded in 1990 and headquartered in New York, AdMedia is an M&A adviser to digital and traditional marketing and media businesses.
