The Bulb has been acquired by Trivandi Group with the aim of driving sustainable transformation across the industry.
Trivandi, a consultancy with offices in Riyadh, Dubai and London, provides advisory, design and delivery services for events, venues, destinations and sports organisations. The partnership was forged through shared values, ambitions, and vision, and marks a milestone in the growth of both companies.
The Bulb’s six-strong team will establish a dedicated sustainability business within Trivandi, combining Trivandi’s operational experience with The Bulb’s sustainability knowledge "to create real-world, forward-looking strategies that deliver actionable solutions". The Bulb's team has fully integrated into the organisation, with founder Selina Donald joining the Trivandi executive committee as director of sustainability, putting sustainability at the top of the agenda for the business.
“We are thrilled to welcome The Bulb to the Trivandi Group" ,said James Bulley, co-founder and CEO of Trivandi. "Sustainability has always been core to our vision to create a meaningful impact in our sector and protect our planet. This partnership elevates our ability to take action in the fight against climate change by ensuring every project we work on reduces its carbon footprint through the advice we give and interventions we make.
"By uniting The Bulb’s award-winning ESG model with Trivandi’s proven strategy, design and delivery expertise, we will raise the bar for sustainability standards across the events, venues, destinations and organisations we serve. This also enables us to continue our mission of improving the industry, applying our learnings from each project to the next, while sharing knowledge and best practice.”
“Having built The Bulb organically for the last decade, I’m excited for the next phase of our growth as part of the Trivandi Group. I founded The Bulb to tackle climate change issues and make a real difference to the communities and environment where major events are held,” said Selina Donald, co-founder and CEO, The Bulb.
"After collaborating with the Trivandi team on COP28 UAE and Expo 2025 in Osaka, we recognised a shared vision and ambition to create meaningful experiences that push the boundaries of what sustainable event practice can be.”
