The Engine Group / EGS
Ingenious Corporate Finance has advised The Engine Group, the UK's leading privately owned marketing and communications group, on the acquisition of Edwards Groom Saunders, a communications planning agency, for a mixture of cash and shares.
EGS adds a communication planning specialism to the Engine group, and will become a central part of Engine's offer at a time when clients are increasingly looking for agencies to take an overview of their entire marketing budget.
The acquisition is the latest in a series of successful acquisitions for Engine, and marks the continuation of Ingenious' long standing relationship with this client. In the last 3 years, Ingenious has advised Engine on 9 successful acquisitions and two private placings with a combined investment value of £50m.
