VeSpace has expanded its operations with the acquisition of Leeds-based experiential events agency We Love This.
A year on from its investment in Leeds-based Chilled Agency, veSpace is hailing the completion of a 'northern creative powerhouse'. Beck and Lee Marriott, founders of We Love This, have worked in creative partnership with Chilled MD Colin Hill, for more than 20 years.
VeSpace CEO Anita Lowe said: “We Love This represents another fantastic addition to our portfolio. Their existing close relationship with Colin and his team at Chilled paves the way for even more strategic collaboration, and we can’t wait to see what they produce together.”
Lee and Beck Marriott said: “We’ve worked with Colin since before we set up our own businesses - seeing his journey and how the Chilled team has flourished over the last 12 months cements that veSpace is the perfect home for We Love This also. We’re thrilled to be joining the veSpace family - this is a brilliant opportunity for us to ramp up our expansion, and to be able to offer a wealth of new services to our existing, loyal clients. The ability to retain our brand was very important to us, and Anita and the team at veSpace recognise the strength we bring to the group.”
Colin Hill, Chilled MD, added: “It’s incredible, after all this time working together, to have Lee and Beck officially in the family. We’re excited to see this amazing partnership take shape - together we compliment the best parts of our own offerings.”
VeSpace, the agency founded by Chris and Anita Lowe, celebrated its 35 year anniversary in September.
