Eagle Tree eyes events

Eagle Tree Capital, of New York, has joined forces with Arc (led by ex UBM and Comexposium CEO Simon Foster) to buy events businesses. The newco is open to buying the assets of single or multiple events or to partner with event producers. The new venture reflects the turmoil in the events sector after a year of shutdown and continuing constraints in international travel. We might expect many deals of companies large and small especially if resumed shows start to fall short of expectation.
